Assignment: Bangor Family Case
In order to ensure that a physician practice performs well financially and operationally one aspect that must be considered is the compensation methodology chosen to pay the physician. This methodology could be based on financial factors such as revenue or net income produced. Alternatively, the model could be based on productivity or quality/patient satisfaction of some combination of the above. This following assignment will involve you taking a closer look at these methodologies and determining which you believe is best among the choices given. Although there is not necessarily one correct answer, finding the methodology that fits best for the physicians is very important in ensuring best or desired performance by the physician.
