This session qualifies for 1.0 CME/MOC credits.
Over the next several years, the BOG will be focusing on advocacy initiatives. Hospital call compensation is a controversial topic among otolaryngologists of all practice types. In recent decades there has been a shift away from formal affiliations between otolaryngologists and hospitals. This has resulted in a significant burden of on-call responsibility for a diminishing number of otolaryngologists in the workforce. Otolaryngologists are increasingly requesting payment for hospital call coverage.
Join the Board of Governor’s for a panel focusing on the different models of hospital call compensation.
Topics include:
- Practical tips for negotiation of call coverage compensation including documentation of factors supporting the burden of coverage.
- Additional elements that can impact compensation structure such as compliance considerations, trauma level designation, and market dynamics will also be discussed during this interactive panel.
- Tips from experts on how to attain “fair” compensation for hospital call coverage
