Hello All,

What would be a reasonable salary to ask for the role of PD in Northeast region? Mid size community program. Been a faculty at the same place and looks like an opportunity might come up in the near future. Are 2 admin days/week a reasonable ask?

There are ACGME minimum academic time requirements for PDs. I think it varies based on program size. Look up that info so you are aware of what must be given. Then you can decide how much more you want to ask for.

Also, make sure that they aren’t counting post-call days as Academic days. I know a place in the Midwest does that and the PD, friend of mine, is nearing their breaking point as a result.

Not only ask for just salary (50k) ish stipend for program direct. But demand 2 non clinical days as well

The dedicated 2 non clinical days are key. My friend gets that at small hca community program

If your group’s individual compensation is based upon productivity, make sure the stipend is enough to make you whole for the non clinical time’s impact on your productivity numbers (which will go down by 20-40%).

Thank you all. We are all salaried. I ll probably ask for 2 admin days as per ACGME rules and ll wait to see how much they offer as stipend.

At academic institutions it’s zero, but of
Course you get nonclinical time. The VA’s labor map gives 0.25 FTE for a proper PD role.

2 admin days per week?

 

[residency2010]

Yes. But considering we r short staffed, not sure how this is going to play out.

How many residents would you be overseeing? Up to 20, then one nonclinical day is sufficient. If more than 2 days are sufficient. What kind of administrative support will you have from a competent secretary? How much are colleagues willing to help with teaching out of the OR? These are all intangibles that will make it either easier or more difficult. I would suggest joining SAAAPM if you are serious and go to their conference in Chicago. Feel free to PM me.
