Compensation Valuation Services

Compensation valuation assesses whether a healthcare provider's pay aligns with FMV and commercial reasonableness. This is often essential for compliance with laws such as the Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute, which regulate financial relationships between providers and referral sources.

Compensation valuation analyzes provider productivity data, regional benchmarks, and industry standards. It involves metrics like total work relative value units (wRVUs) for physicians, collections, and hours worked. For example, ensuring a physician’s salary for a medical director role complies with FMV helps safeguard against legal risks and promotes ethical practices.

Defensible Solutions for Evolving Compensation Models

Aligning physicians and other healthcare providers is vital to the success of healthcare organizations. With an ever-changing regulatory landscape and constantly evolving compensation models, it is critical to support compensation arrangements with well-reasoned, defensible, and actionable fair market value (FMV) opinions.

At Root Partners we don’t provide canned opinions or survey-based calculators. Instead, we work diligently to understand our client’s alignment goals, the regulatory guardrails pertinent to the arrangement, and the true market-based value drivers underpinning the compensation arrangement. Most importantly, we work collaboratively to educate all parties involved to build consensus and facilitate a successful and compliant outcome.
