Curious if any ER or crisis stabilization unit attendings in an academic setting have an RVU reliant (base) salary?
Admittedly, I’ve never heard of this (and perhaps didn’t realize it when I was in academia doing ER psych). I do know RVU based CL is unpopular, and that academic employers started moving toward a model where it mainly incentivizes bonuses.
Some early career advice I stumbled across the hard way: If it’s a new role in the hospital and the volume isn’t defined (and won’t ever be), only accept it in a very part time capacity.
