Physician Compensation and Compliance: More Than Just the Individual Components
This Briefing is brought to you by the Fair Market Value Affinity Group of the American Health Lawyer’s Association’s Hospitals and Health Systems Practice Group.
Properly assessing the fair market value and commercial reasonableness of physician compensation arrangements in an increasingly complex regulatory environment is more critical than ever before. As the number of related health care settlements continues to grow, organizations are under increased scrutiny regarding both the physician compensation and contracting processes and must have protocols in place to help ensure compliance and mitigate risk.
As a member of AHLA’s Fair Market Value Affinity Group, SullivanCotter’s Kim Mobley, along with other industry experts, recently contributed to this Practice Group Briefing which includes an analysis of the current regulatory environment, insights from both an attorney’s and a valuator’s perspective, a step by step process for helping to support compliant compensation arrangements, and other important questions to consider.
