Relationship Status with Productivity-Based Compensation:It's Complicated
by
Matthew Jensen, MBA, ASA, |
Senior Manager
at Coker Group
Talk of the shift from volume to value is constantly in the air. The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA) is making it official. But with all this talk, many healthcare organizations are still going steady with wRVU-based productivity compensation, and for a good reason.
The healthcare community broadly accepts that physicians require performance incentives to maintain the viability of physician enterprises. To date, using wRVUs is one of the best measures to track and reward work effort. Further, wRVUs are payer-neutral, which appeals to physicians as protection from payer mix variation. It also appeals to many not-for-profit health systems as being consistent with their community-service mandate.

Conflict Management and Successful Leadership
by
Ron Strieker, Ph.D.
| Consultant
at
Coker Group
When coaching leaders in today's busy and complex healthcare environment, issues of conflict are ever present. Healthcare leaders face situations ranging from patient care to operational cost and control. Conflict often occurs as these leaders manage this dynamic environment and/or lead change toward new horizons. Research shows that leaders who manage conflict effectively tend to be most successful. Conversely, those who handle conflict poorly tend to struggle, especially in the areas of team development and strategic implementation. Researchers found that collaboration and working effectively across functional boundaries is the key for senior managers to address change and manage conflict effectively (Wiess and Hughes, 2005).
