title: Building the right physician compensation model.
abstract: In using benchmark data from physician surveys to establish physician compensation, hospitals should follow six guidelines: Know what the benchmark data represent and how they are computed. Use all resources available in setting physician compensation. Carefully determine whether the median work relative value unit should be used. Beware of applying consistent compensation models across specialties. Be careful not to change the compensation rates annually. Think holistically.
