Work RVUs increased 1.8 percent for internal-medicine hospitalists and .02 percent for pediatric hospitalists. Leslie Flores, MHA, senior advisor for practice management at SHM, said, “What I get out of this is both compensation and productivity appear to be leveling off somewhat. We’re not seeing the big increases from year to year we have seen historically,” according to the report.
