Here’s what five anonymous residents said about their pay:
“Some weeks, I get paid the equivalent of $12 an hour”
“Compensation does not take into consideration a family and kids.”
“When required to work extra hours (back-up shifts), we don’t get paid more.”
“Residents get paid too little for how long the training is and how hard we work.”
“Compensation doesn’t reflect what we have to spend to do the job (commuting, childcare, etc.)”
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
