What is the billable rate? 1000 per hour?
- yurishimo 2y agoUnironically yes. I remember going to the ER in a rural town in Texas when I was 18 and getting the bill for the doctor and it was $800/hr. The hospitals hire many ER doctors as “contractors” so they can crank the rates up. But the doctor works for a conglomerate that rents them out to the hospital for a fixed salary and the conglomerate profits the spread.
