Anyone who is a NHSC scholar know anything about the average pay at most of the payback sites for FM? I am just wondering if you can expect to make average for your field. I can't find anywhere that states that you can expect to make average pay, so it concerns me to think that you could get stuck taking a position that is really lower pay, without much a of a negotiating position. Anyone know?

Hey there, I'm a NHSC scholar, and from what I understand you're guaranteed the average rate of pay of physicians in your area. But keep in mind that if you're in a rural area, you're obviously going to have lower pay than someone in a big city. The rates I've seen for family practice have been around 80-95K. Not bad considering you have no loans to pay back.
