AMGA gathered data from 55 medical groups across the U.S, which represented 1,300-plus incumbents. About 63 percent of incumbents were from system-affiliated groups, while 37 percent represented independent groups. The majority (73 percent) of incumbents in the survey belong to groups of more than 100 full-time equivalent physicians.
The survey found national median total cash compensation for physician CEOs increased by 7.5 percent, 11.1 percent for non-physician CEOs and 7.2 percent for COOs. The survey also revealed other traditional C-suite positions saw increases of up to 4.4 percent at median.
When analyzing compensation for executive roles, the survey indicated the median “earned bonus-to-base ratio,” which measures the proportion of compensation driven by performance incentives spanning beyond base salary, increased for several executive roles over 2016.
Here are eight statistics on medical group executive compensation, listed according to median earned bonus-to-base ratio from 2016 and 2017.
