[LinP3] Re: Wages in the Philippines- as of 2006

Your figure of P200 is not off the mark. However, they must pay
expenses out of that. They have expenses, such as office, help, and
for patients they see in the hospital they pay a fee to the hospital.

Would you not expect a doctor to have to pay a fee to a hospital
that he/she works out of?
