Discussion was held, and the following points were noted.
- It’s usually less than 3 months before income stabilization begins.
- $20,000 is currently budgeted. This includes family doctors only. Different
incentives would be extended to specialists. B.Roth to look up the numbers from
previous examples.
- If expenses far exceed the suggested contribution, a request can be placed before
the Committee for consideration. Committee Members agreed.
- No changes to moving expenses.
- B.Roth to update Will, and asking him to let the Committee know if he has someone
in mind.
