Episode 111: Compensation Clarity: Designing Physician Pay Models That Work
Manage episode 459779882 series 3416678
Compensation isn’t just about money—it’s about value, recognition, and culture. It’s no wonder it’s one of the most emotionally charged topics in any medical group. Today’s topic is one that often stirs strong emotions: physician compensation. Designing an effective pay model is one of the most challenging tasks for any practice leader. Why? Because pay isn’t just a number on a paycheck—it’s deeply tied to how we view our contributions, our worth, and our role within the group.
For administrators and CEOs, tinkering with compensation plans can feel like stepping into a minefield. It’s no exaggeration to say that changing pay structures is often a career-limiting move. The stakes are high, and missteps can alienate staff, create resentment, or even lead to turnover. Yet, despite the challenges, compensation is one of the most powerful tools a group has to align behavior with its goals, build a cohesive culture, and drive growth.
In this episode, we’ll explore why compensation is such a sensitive issue, how leaders can thoughtfully approach changes, and what it means to design a plan that reflects your group’s culture and values.
