- Not level 1 or 2 supervision
- Willing to work 4-5 days/week
Note: Doctors from UK / Canada / New Zealand / Ireland / USA are only selected
Salary + Benefits:
Billable Medicare
There are lots of different item numbers the doctor will bill depending on what service/consultation is provided. Every service is able to be billed.
Example: Most doctors see between 25 and 40 patients per day. Depending on their experience this may start a little slower but would build up to at least 25 patients per day within a few weeks once they got used to systems etc.
Expect they would bill a minimum of $1500/day (experienced and savvy GPs will bill $3000+ per day) 5 days per week, 45 weeks per year = $337k billed
Their percentage will then dictate how much they earn and this will be based on their training/experience.
As they become experienced (and work with the training the practice can provide) they could reach an average of $3000 per day, this would equate to annual billings of 675k.
In short the expectation is for them to earn $200-$450k depending on their experience.
