Correct. The per Unit charge for anesthesia is up 30-50% since 2009. This means private practice income should be in excess of $450-$500K (plus the benefit package). The fact that someone on here thinks $360 or even $400K represents an "increase" in compensation since 2009 is truly ignorant. This is why I stress one should seek out true private practice rather than an "employee" position. As of 2016 there are still opportunities out there in the private sector.
I think bundled payments will hurt AMCs severely. Their insurance company leverage will poof into thin air.
