I will take my heavily exploited $175K anyday. I will also take my buy in. I have done PNBs and regional with my overhead 300 miles away. CRNAs and AA-Cs can both be exploited equally. There are dirt bags everywhere who are in it for the money. Those are the kinds of doctors who end up getting sued and their liscences pulled. Lets make sure we properly educate the SRNAs and AAs on HIPAA and billing so they are not exploited. Every CRNA and AA should be able to figure out (roughly) how many procedures they can perform and guestimate their income potential for that ACT.
