It saddens me to report that the State of Iowa has slipped out of the Top Ten States With the Highest Median Salary for Physicians (resource courtesy of Becker's Hospital Review). Unless we can figure out how to add mountains or an ocean to our landscape, we will continue to struggle in attracting and keeping top health care professionals. It's another negative indicator of Iowans' ability to access health care where, when and how they need it.
