Your compensation package at Memorial Hospital of Converse County reflects both your professional value and the organization's commitment to provider well-being. With a base salary of $174,000, you'll enjoy financial stability that's competitive with national averages for orthopedic PAs while benefiting from Wyoming's favorable tax environment and Cheyenne's reasonable cost of living. Unlike production-based models that can create pressure and unpredictability, this straightforward compensation approach allows you to focus on quality patient care rather than volume metrics.
The four-day work week without call responsibilities represents a significant lifestyle benefit that many healthcare providers seek but rarely find. This schedule creates genuine work-life balance, providing you with dependable time for personal pursuits, family commitments, or simply enjoying Wyoming's abundant outdoor recreation. After years of watching colleagues burn out from unsustainable schedules, you'll appreciate the difference this predictable rhythm makes in your overall well-being.
The value of this compensation package extends beyond the dollar amount. Wyoming's lack of state income tax effectively increases your take-home pay compared to positions with similar salaries in states with higher tax burdens. Combined with Cheyenne's reasonable housing costs and overall affordability, your compensation provides purchasing power that would require a significantly higher salary in many metropolitan areas.
This balanced approach to compensation and scheduling reflects Memorial Hospital's understanding that provider satisfaction directly impacts patient care quality and retention. Rather than maximizing short-term productivity at the expense of sustainability, they've designed a package that supports your professional and personal well-being for the long term.
