Stamp, Porter County Health Department Director Carrie Gschwind, and Board of Health President Dr. Linda Boxum give monthly presentations to the Board of Commissioners on the department’s expanding initiatives. “Yes, it’s much more than my current pay,” Stamp replied. Stamp is currently paid $45,800 a year for her part-time role.But even at the higher, full-time pay, it is a significantly lower salary than a full-time family physician working for a hospital staff would make, Stamp explained after the council inquired where the proposed pay fell on the private sector spectrum.
“In the past 13 years a lot has changed,” said Stamp who’s been in the role since 2011. “The scope of the position, really. It has never had a job description affiliated with it, just the code.”
