For example, at the Cathay General Hospital, a chief resident (i.e. an MD in the fifth year of residency) in surgery earns about NT $ 110,000 (US $ 4000) per month in salary and bonuses. Not bad, but a pediatrician in Neihu reveals that within half a year of opening his own office he was pulling in NT $ 2 million per month.
以國泰醫院為例，外科總醫師（第五年的住院醫師）一個月的薪水加上獎金大約在十一萬元上下；內湖一位開業半年的小兒科醫師透露，開業後他一個月的所得近兩百萬。
