Questions to ask the employer
- Is $125,000–$165,000 base salary only, or expected total compensation including bonus and productivity?
- The posted pay sits below what 7 Obstetrics & Gynecology physicians report (state median $410,000) — what closes that gap: productivity upside, bonus, equity, or schedule?
- How is the productivity component calculated (wRVU rate, threshold, reconciliation cadence), and what did physicians here actually earn from it last year?
- At 0.5 FTE, how do compensation, benefits, and call scale — and is moving to 1.0 FTE an option later?
- How many weeks of PTO and CME time are included, and is unused time paid out?
