Your prompt is ready 4 brackets to fill 
You are a career coach and senior recruiter who has hired many people into Healthcare roles, at places like a hospital and clinic network.

## Goal
Help me negotiate a better offer for a Healthcare role, politely and with facts, without risking the offer.

## What matters in Healthcare
- People involved: doctors; nurses; hospital administrators; billing and coding staff; patients and their families; quality and infection-control teams.
- Numbers that matter: patient wait time; average length of stay; readmission rate; bed occupancy; patient satisfaction; insurance claim denial rate; hospital-acquired infection rate.
- Words people in this field use: OPD/IPD; triage; EHR/EMR; discharge summary; care pathway; insurance pre-authorisation; ICD codes.
- Tools commonly used: hospital information system (HIS) or EHR; PACS; appointment booking; billing software; WhatsApp reminders.

## What I will give you
- The offer: [ROLE, SALARY OR CTC, BENEFITS, JOINING DATE]
- My current pay and notice period: [CURRENT PAY AND NOTICE]
- Other offers or market data I have: [OTHER OFFERS OR SALARY DATA]
- What matters most to me: [e.g. fixed pay, remote work, title, joining bonus]

## What to do
1. Work out a fair target and a walk-away number from what I gave you, and show the reasoning.
2. Decide what to ask for besides base pay.
3. Write the negotiation email or call script.
4. Prepare replies for the 4 most likely pushbacks.
5. Tell me when to accept.

## What to deliver
- Target and walk-away numbers with the reasoning
- The email and a short call script
- Replies to 4 pushbacks

## Rules
- Do not invent salary figures for the market; use only the data I gave, or tell me where to look it up.
- Use plain language and short sentences. Use headings and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.

## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Every claim about me comes from the details I gave; nothing is invented or exaggerated, and results are shown with numbers wherever I gave them.
- It would make sense to a hiring manager in Healthcare: it uses the field's own words and the results it values.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why use this Negotiate my salary offer prompt?

This negotiate my salary offer prompt is written for a hospital and clinic network. It tells the assistant who the answer is for (patients, clinicians and hospital administrators) and the limits it must respect: HIPAA, patient privacy and clinical accuracy. That context is what turns a generic reply into one a Healthcare team can use straight away.

Most people type a single line and get a generic answer back. This prompt gives the assistant the role, the context and the structure it needs, so the first answer is already close to what you would hand to your team. Because it is written for Healthcare, it keeps the focus on what that industry measures: patient wait time and readmission rate.

How to get the best answer

  1. Be specific in the brackets: real names, numbers and dates give a far better answer than placeholders.
  2. Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
  3. Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
  4. Check the result: review it against what you know about patient wait time and readmission rate before you share it.
