      We have not seen any Policy statement by PMC yet on this particular issue. Hopefully, in the next coming days, will get a better idea, as it requires an application process and revisits by the accreditation council.

    How much a doctor ( eg. Cardiologist) makes in usa? Are there any ways to supplement our incomes apart from our basic salary? What are the cons an IMG face in comparison to native residents/specialists? Please reply

      Average physician salaries were $313,000/year in 2019 according to the Medscape Physician Compensation Report 2019.
      Oklahoma was the top-earning state for all physicians, with an average income of $337,000/year, followed by Alabama at $330,000/year and Nevada at $329,000/year.
      Cardiology is among the top 5 highest-earning specialties in the US- with an average base pay of $430,000/year.
      Apart from the base salary, physicians get insurance, retirement benefits and additional bonus based on productivity.
      US citizens are preferred over IMGs for residency spots. However, after the completion of residency, the jobs are offered based on competence on an equal opportunity basis.

      Once you complete the USMLE exam and get ECFMG certification, then you apply for a residency spot through national matching process. You can’t practice medicine in the US without completing ACGME certified training offered by US hospitals.
