Your compensation package at Pomerene Hospital reflects the organization's commitment to attracting and retaining exceptional family medicine physicians while providing the financial security and professional support that allows you to focus on excellent patient care. The base salary of $280,000 positions you competitively within the family medicine market while offering additional earning potential through performance incentives and supervisory stipends. This financial foundation, combined with comprehensive benefits and unique perquisites, creates a total compensation package that supports both your professional goals and personal well-being.
The three-year contract structure provides stability and predictability while allowing both you and the organization to build a long-term professional relationship. Unlike many healthcare positions where compensation structures create pressure for unsustainable productivity, this package balances competitive base compensation with achievable performance metrics that reward quality care and patient satisfaction rather than volume alone.
Your salary is enhanced by a unique supervisory stipend of $200 per month for each advanced practice provider under your supervision – currently totaling $800 monthly for four mid-level providers, with potential for growth as the practice expands.
The performance bonus structure rewards excellence across multiple dimensions with up to 10% additional compensation based on RVU productivity, patient satisfaction scores, and achievable quality metrics including MIPS and CPC measures. These quality indicators focus on fundamental family medicine practices such as diabetes screening, hypertension management, depression screening, falls assessment, and medication documentation – metrics that align with excellent patient care rather than creating administrative burden.
Your benefits package extends well beyond traditional healthcare and retirement offerings to include unique advantages that recognize the realities of physician practice and family life. The six weeks of combined paid time off provides genuine work-life balance, while the housing assistance program demonstrates the organization's commitment to your successful transition to the community.
Health, dental, and vision insurance begin the first of the month after your start date, eliminating coverage gaps during your transition. The retirement package and malpractice coverage with tail insurance provide long-term financial security, while the CME allowance supports your ongoing professional development and board certification requirements.
Several distinctive benefits set this opportunity apart from typical physician employment arrangements. The no moonlighting restriction policy allows you to pursue additional income opportunities if desired, while the visa sponsorship availability demonstrates the organization's commitment to recruiting exceptional physicians regardless of citizenship status.
The housing assistance program represents a particularly valuable benefit, with the hospital providing housing for at least one year while you establish yourself in the community. This eliminates the stress of finding housing in an unfamiliar area while allowing you to explore neighborhoods and housing options without pressure. The program accommodates families of all sizes and welcomes pets, recognizing that successful physician recruitment involves supporting the entire family unit.
The compensation structure recognizes that financial security allows physicians to focus on patient care excellence rather than income generation pressures. The negotiable signing bonus provides immediate financial support for relocation and practice establishment, while the performance bonus structure creates earning potential that grows with your clinical success and patient outcomes.
The supervisory stipend structure not only provides additional income but also creates opportunities for leadership development and practice management experience. As the practice continues to grow and add mid-level providers, your supervisory compensation will increase proportionally, creating a pathway for enhanced earning potential aligned with practice expansion.
This compensation and benefits package reflects Pomerene Hospital's understanding that exceptional patient care flows from physicians who feel valued, supported, and financially secure. The combination of competitive base compensation, performance incentives, comprehensive benefits, and unique advantages creates a foundation for both professional success and personal satisfaction in your family medicine practice.
