Physician Recruitment Process and Compensation Overview

A Comprehensive Package Designed for Your Financial Security and Professional Growth

Your compensation as an OBGYN Hospitalist starts with a competitive base salary of $325,000 annually, positioning you well within market standards while offering multiple pathways to increase your earnings through strategic shift selection. Unlike the uncertainty of productivity-based models, this guaranteed compensation provides financial stability while the various differential payments reward flexibility and commitment to high-need areas. The beauty of this structure lies in its transparency – you'll know exactly what each shift pays before you commit to your schedule, allowing you to optimize your income based on your preferences and life circumstances.

The real financial advantage becomes apparent when you consider the multiple ways to enhance your base compensation. Working nights adds 10% to your hourly rate, while shifts at the high-acuity Orlando campus come with additional compensation. Pick up a 15th or 16th shift in a month? Those come with overtime differential rates. Choose to work a night shift at Orlando as an extra shift, and you'll stack three differentials on top of your base rate. Some hospitalists comfortable with this flexibility report earning significantly above the base salary through strategic shift selection.

Base Compensation Structure

  • $325,000 base salary for 14 twelve-hour shifts monthly
  • 10% night shift differential for overnight coverage
  • Additional compensation for shifts at Orlando's Level IV facility
  • Overtime rates for shifts beyond the standard 14 per month
  • Quality bonus up to $25,000 annually based on achievable metrics
  • Sign-on bonus of 10% of base salary ($32,500) with two-year commitment
  • No tail coverage required – full malpractice coverage through AdventHealth's internal program

Comprehensive Benefits Portfolio

Beyond the strong compensation package, AdventHealth provides benefits that protect your family's security and support your professional development. Your malpractice insurance comes through AdventHealth's internal risk pool, functioning like occurrence-based coverage with no tail insurance required if you leave – a significant financial advantage over traditional claims-made policies. The organization provides $4,500 annually for CME (or more if double-boarded), plus five dedicated CME days that don't count against your PTO. An additional $1,500 covers professional dues and memberships, ensuring you maintain your certifications and professional connections without personal expense.

The work-life balance features set this opportunity apart from many hospitalist positions. You'll receive 26 PTO days annually, with the unique advantage that holidays only count against this if you're scheduled to work them. Most remarkably, hospitalists receive five additional PTO days that can roll over if unused – a rare benefit in hospital medicine that acknowledges the intensity of shift work. Your schedule is set three to four months in advance, allowing you to plan family events, vacations, and personal commitments with confidence.

Relocation and Establishment Support

AdventHealth understands that joining their team may require significant life changes, providing relocation assistance to help smooth your transition to Central Florida. While specific amounts are negotiable based on your circumstances, the organization has shown flexibility in supporting physicians making long-distance moves. The credentialing team begins working immediately upon offer acceptance, with dedicated staff managing the Florida licensure and hospital privileging process to minimize delays in your start date.

This compensation package reflects AdventHealth's understanding that attracting top OBGYN hospitalists requires more than competitive base salaries – it demands a structure that rewards dedication, provides security, and supports both professional growth and personal well-being. With the organization actively working on compensation enhancements to maintain market competitiveness, joining now positions you to benefit from both current advantages and future improvements as the program continues its remarkable growth trajectory.
