any gp's out there?
 

Currently looking for gp work? Just wondered if anyone had info on going rates for income and leave etc?

Is 60% of billing the norm? What is the minimum someone should expect? Does it matter whether it is bulk or non-bulk billing?

Is it true that study leave and annual leave are not paid because one is on a private contract? I guess that is the same also for maternity leave?

Any tips of advice would be greatly apreciated!!

Do a search in the Immigration Forum for "mvt550" (without the quotes). He is a GP who emigrated to Oz from the UK. He works in NSW and may know the answers to your questions.

I know nothing about the field, nor am I a GP but The Cairns Post were advertising for registered GP's last week at $150 an hour.

I'll see if I can find the ad....

Edit: hope the link works...

This might be worth having a look at too - only for Queensland though....

Hi I went for a job at a local GP practice and was surprised to learn that all of the GP's were on a Sub-contract basis, so baysically presented the owner with an invoice for time. Therefore employer had no additional staffing expenses, can't really see how this would promote employee loyalty.
