The group should have some projections of how she will increase production/collections as well that she should ask for. She has slightly more value than a PA since she can see patients, chart and bill autonomously. Depending on the cases scheduled, I would have clinic patients for her to see on my OR days instead of using her as a first assist. A PA can't do that without one of the partners having to do extra work cosigning his/her charts...

I stand corrected. Sorry to the OP, in FL your wife is no more valuable than a PA. Go ahead and down vote this one too because you don't like the truth about her value to an ortho group. A poster above gave a very realistic starting salary range IMO, any lower than that and she'd make more money as a floor nurse working a little OT. Of course once any PA or NP learns a little bit about the pathology specific to the specialty, they become increasingly more valuable to the group/employer.
