I was curious on what people are getting paid to be the medical director of a SNF. It is a 45 bed facility in rural Midwest. It is minimal commitment per their administration. They said about 3 hours a month for quality meetings. I already round on most of the patients there and collect my revenue through my clinic. They presented me a contract the other day and the stipend was $600 a month which seemed low. I countered with $2,000 and they acted like I was trying to rip them off. I am a board certified family physician with 17 years experience if that makes any difference in stipend amounts. I was a medical director of a VA long term care facility in North Chicago when I was an active duty physician, but I wasn’t given a stipend since it was part of my duties so I have no clue what the going rate is now.
