JeffreyI agree. I have worked in 6 ER’s in Louisiana the last 5 years with top salary $220/hr and mean of $165/hr, so I do not see how the AVERAGE rate can be $225/ hr.

BenPlease don’t work for $165 an hour, get payed what your worth.

Alex PerezI would also like to know where is this information based on. I as my other two unknown colleagues find the numbers to be inflated 100k or more yearly. Taking interest in the article, could you send information on this positions or the availability. Thank you!

JoeRead what it says.. It includes RVUs, bonuses, and $30,000 to represent an average benefits package. The hourly rate listed is going to be higher than your outright hourly rate.
