Rural Physician & Advanced Practice Provider Compensation Survey Results
Stroudwater Associates, in partnership with the NRHA, developed a physician and advanced practice provider compensation survey for rural organizations.
Representing over 6,000 rural providers, the results of the survey illustrate the enormous variability in provider pay across rural organizations and the pressing need for rural healthcare to align its provider pay to the organization’s goals.
The first-of-its-kind report provides a path forward for rural healthcare organizations by outlining provider compensation trends, best practices, and potential challenges leaders might face when it comes to recruiting and retaining top talent in rural.
Key Takeaways Include:
- The majority of provider compensation is not tied to incentives
- Salary variability continues to increase
- Salary increases are not necessarily tied to position shortages
- Independent and affiliated rural hospitals may not know what they are paying providers covered under Professional Service Agreements (PSAs)
