What determines wage levels in the health care industry?

Answer 1

Wage system of employees in the healthcare is set by category: doctors, middle and junior medical staff, and administrative and managerial staff. The system is based on the salaries of doctors setting circuit salary, bonuses and promotions system. Schematically salary depends on the position (surgeon, doctor-intern or other doctors), taking into account qualification category. Official salaries also depend on the location of the medical institution in the highlands. Increase in the salaries of employees in the healthcare is carried out in cases of honorary title or scientific degree.
