Hello everyone, I am a year away from finishing my GI fellowship but am having some trouble figuring out which offers are best for me. I am looking mainly in the Maryland/Virginia area on the west side of Washington D.C. Due to COVID-19 I have only had had talks over the phone or zoom with recruiters and physicians in the area for now. State GI societies have also not been meeting due to the pandemic. In terms of average compensation for the area, I have come across varied numbers so not sure what I should be expecting.
Do any attending physicians here have any advice on certain things to look for when offered a contract? I am mainly looking at employed practice and hybrid (if there). Most models offer a base rate + possible RVU and/or quality bonus. Also I am told of a possible buy in option for ASC's at a large health center after 2 years at an employed practice which I have never heard of outside private practice.
