Contract & Benefits

Physician Recruitment Process and Compensation Overview

This position offers a confirmed base salary of $682,500, structured as $3,750 per 24-hour shift across 182 scheduled shifts annually. The shift-based model eliminates production variability and delivers predictable, full-rate income from the first day of employment with no ramp period or threshold to clear. Compared to the 2025 MGMA Gastroenterology benchmark, this compensation falls above the median ($606,930) and approaches the 75th percentile ($755,471), placing it in approximately the 60th to 65th percentile range for the specialty. Physicians interested in additional earning can take on shifts beyond the 182-shift base at the same $3,750 rate, with no cap specified. When combined with Oklahoma City's cost of living, which runs approximately 18% below the national average, the purchasing power of this compensation exceeds what the base number alone suggests.

This model is based on provided data and market-based assumptions. Final compensation details are confirmed by the employer.

Additional shifts beyond the 182-shift base are compensated at the same rate. The table below illustrates potential earning at varying levels of additional coverage.

Market Benchmark Comparison

Note: MGMA gastroenterology benchmarks reflect a broad mix of outpatient and inpatient physicians. This role is a pure inpatient hospitalist model, which differs structurally from most physicians represented in the dataset. The shift rate and total compensation should be evaluated against the workload and schedule context.
