Most of the hospital go by MGMA median which is around 450K with 6500 threshold, so your base and threshold looks fair but below standard. But 30 per RVU is below par by any means.
2019 MGMA non anesthesia pain 75%ile: comp 600k, wRVU 8727, comp:wRVU $95 (not sure how this is calculated)
That’s not a bad base. Is it big city?
In HOPD land, this won't work if it's a 1FTE position = 4.5 days/wk, >.75FTE at most places to keep full benefits
Reasonable point. You can do any number of things while at work that are either enjoyable or profitable while being “present” 4 days and easily doing 5000 rvu. If they are micromanaging how you schedule pts., etc. that’s a completely different issue.
I'm developing a PPE mask with straw and Yeti capability to sip some sweet coffee drinks whilst doing the shots.
please explain why any hospital CEO would request 60 min CESI when they can generate 3 times more income with 20 min ones.
They have no idea what happens on a daily basis in every location.
That is the stated reason for existence of clinic admin in HOPD land, Nowadays you rarely find a clinical person filling any mid managerial position, unless you believe an MA without a college degree who is half your age qualifies
Sign me up for a dozen!
Can you not use your other two days of the week as "administrative days" or work in some committee job for extra pay within the hospital?
FTE is defined as face to face time spent with patients. Committee work is voluntary & non-compensating and admin time is nonbillable work hours, so the answer is no. If you are not billing then you are not generating income for HOPD or PP and you are dead weight. Way back when I was in PP, 5 full days/wk with .5day on a weekend for extra procedures was pretty typical. In HOPD 4.5 days/wk with .5day admin, in academia 4 clinic days/wk with .5day admin and .5day lectures/meetings/grand rounds/teaching
So is there another way OP can just hit the 5000 cap and cruise after that since the differential above the 5000 isnt that much?
Maybe for you, but there are paid committees and tons of admin money for docs. Board position, medical directorship, etc.
Negotiate more time off. Have them allow you to do work on the side during vacation. You can offer to pay your own malpractice for any side work ( the Locums should
For admin & directorship positions yes, but my reading of this post was this is a standard HOPD position without any of those additional duties
I had a private practice contract placed in front of me which said the same thing. I insisted it be removed before signing which it was.
DOCTORJAY: Where did you get these numbers from? Any screen shot of mgma data? have done a search and can't find... trying to revise our comp plan for our group and this is EXACTLY the data I'm looking for...
“They will never move you back.” Try negotiating with someone who doesn’t see you as an equal and instead as a commoditized service and tell me how it goes.
LOL they can go fvuk themselves. Got a problem? Hire a second physician to cover those 'pain emergencies'
That's pretty much what I said. It was great, and then right before my contract was about to end, gave my notice. No way would I ever work like a slave or dog. I'm a trained, professional physician and I know my worth and value.
I'd imagine they would value and respect someone who is bringing in a comparable amount of money. If youre bringing in more or equivalent revenue to them, hit em with that BDE.
Agree with above, though the 10 weeks of vacation Is for anesthesia jobs not pain. I’ve never seen a pain job with 10 weeks of vacation.
