Abstract
This article examines physician compensation models in medical groups and the factors affecting physician compensation and their impact on individual physician behavior and group practice performance. Four categories of physician compensation models are identified: (1) production-based compensation, (2) salary, (3) group-based compensation unrelated to individual physician productivity, and (4) capitation-based compensation. The statistics and the economic incentives of different compensation methods are presented. Finally, the impacts on health resources consumption, charges in medical group procedures for utilization and care management, and quality of care are discussed.
