  • Title: Avoiding physician compensation problems.
    Author: Mazer RE.
    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 1995 Aug; 49(8):66-8, 70. PubMed ID: 10144175.
    Abstract:
    Hospitals and other healthcare organizations traditionally have been free to structure compensation arrangements with physician employees without governmental interference. However, recent changes in how the statute prohibiting kickbacks has been interpreted and new self-referral legislation indicate that the days of unfettered discretion have come to an end. These changes create new pitfalls for healthcare organizations that seek to employ physicians to provide care as part of integrated delivery systems.
