  3. Decisions

  4. P/CC FellowshipDecisions • Pulm/CC docs make decisions • ICU requires attention to detail and ability to decide on a plan of care • Do not have to be brightest bulb in bin • Pulm also need to make decisions but not as intense usually as ICU

  5. Diversity

  6. P/CC FellowshipDiversity • Many career options now opening via P/CC • Traditional path is do both P/CC • Intensivist path is mainly CC • Outpatient/consults do mainly Pulm • Further fellowships/training: • Sleep • Transplant • IP • PH • CF

  7. P/CC FellowshipDiversity • Outpatient practice is a mixture of chronic disease management and folks needing procedures • Consults either acute flares or procedure requests • ICU is ICU • Upshot of diversity is more readily available for family oriented folks (see McCallister)

  8. Demand

(Leapfrog Group) • Not enough ICU trained docs • Demand is high • Lifestyle has changed in response • Salaries climbing • Private Practice: $300,000 - $350,000 to start; • Academics $150,000 – $200,000 to start
