    In this episode, Sterling breaks down why new physician assistants should look beyond base pay when evaluating job offers. He explains how productivity targets, non-compete clauses, and repayment provisions can limit schedule flexibility and future mobility, especially for those carrying student debt. Listeners learn a practical three-step framework: mapping realistic daily patient loads against ramp-up periods, measuring non-compete radius and duration against real-life geography, and modeling high, average, and low cash-flow scenarios for the first year. The discussion also covers how to request enforcement examples from recruiters and gather firsthand insights from practicing PAs.

    Key takeaways:
    - Convert productivity targets into daily visit counts while factoring in no-shows and charting time.
    - Measure non-compete restrictions against locations you may want to work within two years.
    - Build three cash-flow models to identify financial risks before signing.

  • Understanding PA Career: First Job Economics

    Understanding PA Career: First Job Economics
    2026/07/12
    In this episode we break down first-job economics and specialty ROI for new physician assistants carrying heavy student debt. We compare starting salaries across emergency medicine, family practice, orthopedics, and surgical assisting, then factor in production bonuses, signing incentives, state loan repayment, taxes, and cost of living to show real monthly cash flow after payments. You’ll learn how a $50,000 pay gap plus interest can stretch repayment from five to eight years and how night differentials or underserved-area programs can shorten that timeline. We also examine why total compensation—health premiums, retirement matches, and PTO—often matters more than base salary when negotiating your first contract.

    Key takeaways:
    - Run total compensation numbers on two or three offers side-by-side before accepting
    - Ask exactly how production bonuses are calculated and when thresholds reset
    - Check state loan-repayment eligibility early to cut interest by thousands
    - Treat the first contract as the baseline for all future negotiations
