What is the hourly pay equivalent in Idaho?

Dividing the annual wage estimates by 2,080 hours gives about $167.30 per hour for the mean and $101.68 for the median, rounded to cents. This is an arithmetic equivalent, not a quoted locums, per-diem, telemedicine or shift rate. Contract hours and benefits differ.

Why can this broad category not predict a particular subspecialty offer?

Surgeons, all other (SOC 29-1249) includes all surgeons not listed separately and excludes oral and maxillofacial surgeons. It is a broad BLS occupational category, not general-surgery-only, not one subspecialty and not an average for all surgeons. Its wage estimates do not isolate a particular subspecialty or practice. A written offer depends on scope, caseload, call, paid hours, incentives, benefits and malpractice/tail terms. BLS wages are not all compensation or self-employed owner income; no comparable national compensation bucket is used here.

What should I verify before starting all-other surgeon work in Idaho?

The Idaho Board of Medicine says licensure status can be verified through its License and Registration Search, and that physicians can get primary-source license verifications from other state boards through VeriDoc. It also states that Idaho physicians must complete no less than 40 hours of practice-relevant Category 1 CME every two years. Use the search to confirm the license shows as issued before a first shift, and assign an owner to any verification request. For a Idaho offer, confirm the license is actually issued, and confirm facility privileges and onboarding separately. A pending application is not a confirmed first-shift date.

How can I find higher-paying or part-time surgeon work?

Compare written offers with the same hours, duties and benefits. Use the Saile app to explore part-time, per-diem, locums, telemedicine and full-time work through the existing search. Matching depends on specialty, credentials and location; these wage estimates do not prove current openings or guarantee higher pay.
