There are many physicians who make more than that...some make A LOT more!

Yeah, in our medical group, it's set up differently than other health systems where I've worked. They all get paid from health system itself, the health system does all the billing and gets the money directly and the health system provides the benefits, including the malpractice insurance. It's a massive medical group practice. They sacrifice some in pay, but they save overhead on office space, billing, insurance, etc.
