Here's how much money doctors actually make

Not all doctors will return the same amount. Orthopedic surgeons - physicians treating bone and muscle problems - benefit the most. People who take care of pediatricians and children have the least income. Regardless of major, the takeover capability of a Caucasian doctor to his / her home is considerably higher than that of an equivalent colleague.

This data was obtained from Medscape, which is a medical resource owned by WebMD, and adjusts self-reported annual income data from more than 19,200 physicians from 27 majors through the annual doctor's remuneration report I will. This is a breakdown:

In the past seven years, the average income of doctors has increased steadily. Reason? "A fierce competition for doctors," said Travis Singleton, senior vice president of Merit Hawkins, a national physician search company.

In the past decade, patient competition in hospitals, medical systems, and direct medical institutions is steadily increasing. Mr. Singleton said that doctors' wages increased on average as a result.

The income of orthopedic surgeons and allergic patients is the largest, and this year's income increased by 24% and 16% respectively from last year. Other incomes tend to level off - wages of pediatricians, oncologists, cardiologists do not change much over the past year

According to reports, on average, physicians identified as Caucasians receive the most money. Despite having the same training and experience as a white peer, I decided it was a significant decline of Asian, Latin American or black doctor. Black doctor's income is the least, about 15% less than white doctors

How much does this affect wages? To illustrate how much money a doctor earns in these countries, we are going to use Baker's average salary for doctors in other rich countries, to illustrate it. He actually did not provide this figure, but I got some fantastic calculations from the other figures he quoted and got $ 138,000. 43 million doctors each earned $ 138,000, totaling $ 197 billion. This is lower than the number that Beck's current expenditure is estimated to be 225 billion dollars (which is also a temporary arithmetic operation), which is a saving of $ 27 billion. This is 0.8% of the current medical expenses. This is not a meaningful improvement, but it is a deprecated estimate using Baker. In the real world, the salary of a doctor is determined by the salary level of the insurance company, so its impact will be even smaller. Therefore, influence by the power of traditional free market is rare.

First of all, words about basic economics. According to Mr. Baker, an American physician has received twice as much income as doctors from other countries, which means more than $ 100 billion in expenditure. Then he suggested some changes that can increase supply and can help eliminate this "doctor's tax". But one important thing that seems to be missing is that the salaries of individual doctors are not important to the system; this is the total salary of all doctors. Getting more doctors to earn less money is the same as fewer doctors get less income. Let's take a closer look

Talking with a lot of my friends is a common reaction - they earn too much money (and many of them earn a lot of money)! Somehow, we do not like doctors to make money. Bankers, entrepreneurs, politicians, merciful capitalists, even God man can earn money. This is cool. But the doctor was sentenced to life slavery and they earn so much money. Many enterprising doctors were able to solve these cliches. Unfortunately, I could not do GP

Many doctors are really confused that most people do not believe what they say. For example, I have a story about GOOP. Gwenyth Paltrow sells a large number of scientifically unreasonable health products on her website. And when trying to 'explore' her theory many doctors and 'medical professionals' will fire. But eventually, GOOP sells millions of dollars of products. The citizen decided to pay for that money and choose Gwennis instead of a doctor. why? Then there is anti-vaxxers / vaccine controversy. Celebrities like Jenny McCarthy reassert that the vaccine causes autism. Many doctors bubbled in their mouths, "I criticized" these voices aloud. Despite these protests, we occasionally cause a mumps of colds and children are not vaccinated. The people voted again to decide their children and picked Jenny instead of a doctor. Again, why?
