Good points. Also, wouldn't the income of the anesthetist fluctuate with income of the anesthesiologist he/she works for? For example, if the average anesthesiologist income plummets to $150k (whether spurred by economic woes, healthcare reform, or any other cause), won't the average anesthetist income be adjusted to a figure that is more congruent with the average family practice PA income (since family practitioners earn around $150k on average)?
