How to read these numbers

A posted range is what an employer attached to an opening, shown as the low and high across the group. The median midpoint is the median of each opening's range midpoint. Neither is an offer: offers move with experience, setting, call, and the second tier of the package, including sign-on, loan repayment, relocation, CME, and malpractice terms. For what clinicians were actually offered this year, see the MedStaff Nationwide Offer Report.
