What’s important in a contract beyond the salary? A primer for pain physicians and trainees

Abstract

AbstractThis manuscript is designed to complement the previously published primer on salary structures for new pain physicians. The previous manuscript “Employment Contract Financial Models for the Pain Physician: A Primer” had a goal of increasing understanding of financial models by pain fellows when preparing for contract negotiations. This manuscript illustrates the many equally important considerations of “non‐monetary” values that are a significant part of contract negotiation outside of salary. It contributes to the overall education for trainees and pain physicians on benefits and job responsibilities.
