009 | An Overview of Various Physician Assistant Compensation Models

Did you know that as a PA, there are several different ways that you can be compensated? Your income may not be as clearcut as getting paid via hourly pay or via a salary. In this episode, the various compensation models that physician assistants can get paid will be reviewed as well as some of the pros and cons of each, so that you can have an understanding of these options when you are interviewing for PA jobs as a new grad or throughout your PA career!  This episode will review different compensation models such as salary, hourly, RVUs, or bonus structures.  Additionally, I’m going to share which types of compensation models that I have experienced over my almost 7 years of practicing as a PA, along with some detailed income numbers. I decided to do this simply because I think sharing income information is helpful for other PAs, and I don’t think it’s done enough. However, income is clearly based on so many factors including the following: years of experience as a PA, medical specialty, state and even city or county within a state, as well as total compensation package including benefits.  Learn more here: https://www.pathefiway.com/blog/an-overview-of-various-physician-assistant-compensation-models  Website / Blog: pathefiway.com - View website to learn more about financial independence and to learn how we can work together to help you with your financial and career goals on your way to FI!
