Contract & Benefits

Physician Recruitment Process and Compensation Overview

TCHS pays a base salary of $350,000 to $400,000, based on experience, with a wRVU incentive that starts at 3,774 wRVUs and pays out monthly. The package adds a $50,000 sign-on bonus, $270,000 in student loan repayment, relocation support, and temporary housing for your move.

Financial Proforma Analysis

At about 15 clinic patients per day plus inpatient, ER, and long-term care work, projected production is about 5,930 wRVUs*, the MGMA median for Family Medicine. With a $350,000 base and $50 paid on each wRVU above 3,774, projected total compensation at full production is about $457,800*. Year 1 assumes 85%* of full production while you build your patient base, with full production in Year 2. The conversion factor increases above 4,000 wRVUs and again at higher volumes, and the top-earning TCHS physician makes $700,000. The low incentive threshold and monthly payouts reward production on a four-day work week.

This model includes assumed and/or estimated inputs where data was not provided. Assumptions are clearly marked. Final compensation details are to be confirmed by the employer.
