Hematology Oncology pay: locum, telehealth, per diem & consulting rates (2026)
Real data on what hematology oncology physicians earn across every type of physician work. Tell us yours, and we'll show you what direct looks like.
What we hear from hematology oncology physicians
Heme/onc physicians tell us facility bill rates for infusion oversight and clinic coverage push $800–$900/hr in undersupplied markets, while agencies pay out closer to $550/hr. Direct rates we've seen on Saile run materially higher because there's no middleman. The actual number depends on subspecialty mix, infusion volume, and geography.
The Spread
What your staffing agency isn't telling you
When a facility pays a markup rate for your shift, where does the difference go? It's not malpractice. It's not credentialing. It's the spread — the gap between what the facility is billed and what you take home. Most agencies will never show you the bill rate. We will.
