Merritt Hawkins, a Dallas-based physician recruiting and consulting firm, has released its 2018 Compilation of Physician Compensation Surveys.
The report includes compensation numbers for various medical specialties from several organizations, including Merritt Hawkins. Merritt Hawkins’ numbers however, are distinct from those of other organizations in that it tracks average salary or income guarantee offers made to physicians recruited by hospitals, medical groups and other organizations, rather than total gross income as it appears on a physician’s tax return. Merritt Hawkins’ numbers, therefore, are indicative of starting salaries. They also include only the salary or income guarantee amount and do not include production bonuses or benefits.
The numbers are taken from
Modern Healthcare magazine’s July 23, 2018, physician compensation feature and from Merritt Hawkins’ 2018 Review of Physician and Advanced Practitioner Recruiting Incentives.
