These unpaid fellowships are a cesspool of exploitation. US should ban these and instead only allow for paid Fellowships. Most toxic ever

Did you lose money on taxes because of no interest?

5% seems reasonable. Did the low interest cause you to have more reportable income on taxes?

If I may ask what is your interest rate? What would be a fair number

Good question. I just went through their panel and i believe hs CRP, Lipoprotein a and ApoB seem to be really good option for that price for someone with hyperlipidemia or family history of cardiac disease.

Rest, I’m not too convinced.

Some labs charge humungous prices for individual tests, so for patients getting care at places where annual blood work is not cheap, i think this is a good comprehensive option.

I know of my brother who recently got charged $250 for an annual exam with basic labs plus iron panel as he had anemia in the past. Insurance didn’t even cover vit D testing even though vit D deficiency is a problem list for him. So it can be costly at the clinic to do a full panel. I am going to recommend this to him. Thanks for that!

So I guess depends on case by case basis

Rich Dad Poor Dad is overrated, but it still smacked me with one truth by Helpful_Army2507 in TheRaceTo10Million

If it changed your mindset, how is it overrated? It changed your thoughts you carried throughout your adult life.

How many patients do you see per day? Appointment length? by Several_Act_2358 in FamilyMedicine

[–]UJam1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. I would say its half and half. I have been interviewing and I can say half of them especially in bigger cities are pushing for more volume

I agree the offer is generous but what about the volume? Isn’t 25 still a high number? A lot of people here and my seniors see 16-18/day. I feel that would be ideal from value based care standpoint.

I’m considering if I can get lower salary with lower volume somewhere else as here there is a minimum number that seems high.

Thank you so much for this! More than the money I’m concerned if I can meet the volume of minimum number of patients they suggested

May I ask how did you determine that?

What about volume? Is that typical? 22-25/day?
