Income guarantees are hospitals' lure of choice when trying to reel in physicians to their facilities. More than 90% of hospitals responding to a recent survey offer the income guarantees, which recruiters say physicians have grown to expect. Some 74% of the hospitals require physicians to repay the loan but will forgive the loan if the physician agrees to take on administrative or clinical duties at the hospital.

The survey also showed that many hospitals have added salary levels, called clinical ladders, to compensate experienced bedside nurses.
