Abstract in another language
Data on the income of physicians in Germany are only partially available to date. The income of physicians in private practice is derived primarily from practice income, but this opens up considerable scope for interpretation. The aim of this article is to close this gap. For this purpose, the income data from the 2017 micro census were evaluated, with a special focus on physicians in private practice. In addition to personal income, the income situation was presented at the household level. The income figures were differentiated according to the scope of activity, activity group (general-practitioners/specialists/dentists), gender and city/country. The disposable personal income of physicians in private practice was just under € 7,900 per month on average for full-time employment. Specialists earned € 8,250, while general practitioners and dentists earned about € 7,700. Rural physicians were not found to suffer from financial disadvantages; general practitioners from municipalities with < 5,000 inhabitants even had the highest average income of € 8,700, with an average working time of 51 hours per week. Female physicians worked part-time more often than did male physicians. A lower income resulted primarily from a lower scope of activity.
