“I split my time as an intensivist workin 4-6 12-hour shift per month, and anesthesiologist remainder of the time. Both of these positions are private practice 1099 pay, which help me take advantage of s-corp tax savings. We bill insurance directly with blended units amongst partners. We also pay high stipends for 24-hour trauma and OB calls (3K+ each). I work about 5-6 calls per month. ”
