Physician salaries

Richard Reece summarizes the ridiculous comparison between physicians salaries here and abroad:

Sermo readers, some of whom had practiced in Europe, commented,

“¢Americans must pay off educational debts of up to $200,000 while European college and medical training is subsidized.

“¢Europeans may work half the hours of Americans.

“¢Europeans enjoy miniscule malpractice costs.

“¢American practice costs are higher.

To sum up, comparative incomes of American and European doctors must be put in cultural context.
