Region -Upstate NY

# of OR's -7

$$ for being on call only -$2.00

specialty get extra?? - no

It's not much money, but I actually welcome the excuse to have to stay home and available. My wife and I have so many things going on that being home for two days on a weekend is a blessing in disguise.

central indiana-non profit

6 ors, 2 endoscopy

$2 for carrying the beeper, 4 hr min. pay for call in. t1/2 sat., dbl time sun--24 hr weekday staffing so no weekday call

no specialty pay. (specialties at facility include eyes, spine [includes all fusions], totals, vascular [aaa and endovascular])

we are told when we have pay adjustments (always for the better) that all of our pay ranges, including call, are based on regional comparisons. if this is true, then most facilities around me would be paid close to the same.
