The MGMA Pay Data Doesn't Apply to My Role, What Do I Do?

Simply Worth It: Physician Negotiations with Dr. Linda Street

For many physicians, data sets like the MGMA provide more than enough clarity on what to negotiate for. That’s not the case for everyone. If your role happens to fall outside of the scope of the data set, how do you ensure that you’re compensated for the value you bring to the table?

Remember: a lack of data doesn’t mean we accept whatever’s put in front of us. It just means we need to get creative about sourcing the info we need.

In this episode, I talk about what to do when your role and its compensation aren’t clearly defined by standard data sets.
