Will depend on the city and Cost of Labor, but I would suspect 70K-85K. I am also JD and started out higher than my B4 associate peers and it has been roped into my cohort model throughout. My “law school friends” started out making more at law firms but I think it has evened out (same advice a JD/boss told me when I started out 15+ years ago). Maybe my opinion but B4 generally are better run businesses compared to law firms and appreciate that their greatest commodity is their people. They don’t always get it right, but comp is highly researched and they know they need to be competitive. Law firms… not so much. Any economic flinch could cause a ripple and also so much more subjectivity in comp structure/progression. (In my experience, working in both large firms on both sides.)

Isn’t that a lot lower than Big Law? I don’t see how it can catch up in any reasonable time frame. Nowadays, the Big law firms hiring T14 are paying their associates about 200k avg, and there is quite a bit of growth from what I’ve heard.

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!
