Introduction 
  
 Physician income overall has declined since 2010, yet there are tiny glimmers of hope in some specialties. Frustration is mounting, however, and doctors in every specialty are bracing for what they expect to be further income declines as healthcare elements are implemented, such as ACOs and required treatment and quality guidelines. 
  
 Those are some of the insights from Medscape's Physician Compensation Survey Report: 2012 Results. The report is based on a survey that garnered responses from more than 24,000 US physicians representing 25 specialties. 
  
 "Physicians' sense of worry may be greater than the reality, but it's understandable," said Judy Aburmishan, CPA, a partner in FGMK, LLC in Chicago, a firm that represents physicians and other healthcare providers. "Hospitals are buying up private practices both in primary care and the specialties. The heavy-handed message they send out is that if you don't join us, you won't survive. There is great uncertainty and fear about what healthcare reform will mean for physicians once it's fully implemented." 
  
 Some of the major findings from Medscape's 2012 report: 
  
 1. Dissatisfaction with medicine is intensifying, although a majority of physicians would again choose the same career path. In 2012, just over half of all physicians (54%) would choose medicine again as a career, far less than in the previous year's report, where 69% of physicians would choose medicine again. 
  
 2. The top-earning specialties in 2012 were the same as in the previous year, even though their incomes declined in general. In 2012, radiologists and orthopedic surgeons again topped the list at a mean income of $315,000, followed by cardiologists ($314,000) and anesthesiologists ($309,000). The same 4 specialties were in the leading positions in last year's survey. The bottom-earning specialties also remained similar: pediatrics ($156,000), family medicine ($158,000), and internal medicine ($165,000). 
  
 3. Who's up, who's down since 2010? "Decreased reimbursement" is the overall buzz-phrase, yet a minority of specialties saw modest gains. The biggest income increases were in ophthalmology (+9%), pediatrics (+5%), nephrology (+4%), oncology (+4%), and rheumatology (+4%). The largest declines were in general surgery 
  
 (-12%), orthopedic surgery (-10%), radiology (-10%), and neurology (-8%). 
  
 4. Do men or women earn more? Overall, male physicians earn 40% more than female physicians, although that difference is only 23% in primary care. Experts say that the difference is related to choice of specialties and lifestyle preferences that women choose. 
  
 5. Don't write off private practice! Although physicians are rushing toward employment, partners in private practice far outearn physicians in other work environments. Overall, partners in private practice earn significantly more than solo practice owners and employed physicians, who earn less than either group. 
  
 6. The "rich doctor" myth may be just that, although "rich" is relative. Overall, only 11% of physicians say they consider themselves rich, while about 45% say their incomes are no better than that of many nonphysicians, and another about 45% say, "My income probably qualifies me as rich, but I have so many debts and expenses that I don't feel rich." The specialties with the highest percentage of physicians who felt rich were pathology (15%), radiology, oncology, and gastroenterology (14% each). 
  
 7. Doctors in all specialties are swamped with paperwork. A third of physicians (33%) spend more than 10 hours per week on paperwork and administration. 
  
 8. One healthcare reform goal of reducing "unnecessary care" garners negative response. The vast majority (67%) of physicians said they won't reduce the amount of tests, procedures, and treatments they perform (in order to comply with insurer treatment guidelines) either because the guidelines aren't in their patients' best interests or because doctors still need to practice defensive medicine. ||||| Best Paid, Worst-Paid Doctors

 April 24, 2012 -- Radiologists and orthopedic surgeons are the best paid of all doctors and pediatricians earn the least, Medscape/WebMD's annual Physician Compensation Survey finds. 
  
 Overall, doctors are earning less and worrying more, according to the online survey of more than 24,000 doctors from 25 medical specialties. 
  
 The most disturbing finding: If they had it to do over again, 46% of doctors would not choose medicine as a career. That's way up from last year, when only 31% regretted their career choice. 
  
 Best-Paid Doctors 
  
 Even so, the top-earning doctors aren't going broke. The top 10 highest paid doctors are: 
  
 Radiologists: $315,000 Orthopedic surgeons: $315,000 Cardiologists: $314,000 Anesthesiologists: $309,000 Urologists: $309,000 Gastroenterologists: $303,000 Oncologists: $295,000 Dermatologists: $283,000 Plastic surgeons: $270,000 Ophthalmologists: $270,000 
  
 Worst-Paid Doctors 
  
 The 10 least paid doctors are: 
  
 Pediatricians: $156,000 Family medicine doctors: $158,000 Internal medicine doctors: $165,000 Diabeticians/Endocrinologists: $168,000 Psychiatrists: $170,000 HIV/infectious disease specialists: $170,000 Rheumatologists: $180,000 Neurologists: $184,000 Nephrologists: $209,000 Ob-gyns: $220,000 
  
 Why Doctors Worry 
  
 A doctor's specialty may make less of a pay difference than a doctor's sex. Female doctors make 40% less than male doctors, although female primary care doctors make only 23% less than their male peers. 
  
 One possible reason: Female doctors spend more time with patients than male doctors do. 
  
 To some Americans, these salaries may seem pretty high. But only 11% of doctors consider themselves rich. And 45% of doctors agree that "My income probably qualifies me as rich, but I have so many debts and expenses I don't feel rich." 
  
 So what makes doctors worry? According to the survey: |||||

The annual survey from Medscape/WebMD has all kinds of interesting factoids about physician finances—including the fact that many doctors regret their career choice. Highlights: Highest paid: Radiologists and orthopedic surgeons make $315,000, followed by cardiologists ($314,000), anesthesiologists ($309,000), and urologists ($309,000). Lowest paid: Pediatricians ($156,000) make the least, followed by family medicine doctors ($158,000), internal medicine doctors ($165,000), diabeticians/endocrinologists ($168,000), and psychiatrists ($170,000). Regrets: Nearly half (46%) of doctors say they would not go into medicine if they had to choose again, up from 31% last year. They're worried about declining pay, increasing red tape, the pay gap among specialties, and malpractice claims. Click for more details on the survey.
