What the pay looks like

There is no separate federal wage figure for palliative care. These doctors are counted inside a residual group called Physicians, All Other, where the median was about $236,000 a year and the bottom tenth $66,260. The survey stops publishing the top end above $239,200, so the real high end is unknown rather than low. A later update of the same group put the median nearer $265,930.
