Tip of the week: Download a free white paper to learn about negotiating ED call compensation 

What happens when a neurosurgeon is paid $2,000 to take ED call but rarely comes into the hospital? How does the gastroenterologist who does not receive payment for ED call feel about the inequality in compensation? 

“Approaching ED Call Compensation as a Negotiation,” a white paper published by The Greeley Company, a division of HCPro, Inc., addresses how physicians and hospital administrators should approach this critical dialogue between the hospital and physicians. 

Greeley recommends negotiation techniques to create sustainable approaches to ED call. 
“Physicians and hospitals are struggling to determine which physicians should be paid for call and how much they should be paid, which, in essence, is a negotiation…The problem is that most physicians have not been trained in negotiation,” says Rick Sheff, MD, CMSL, chair and executive director of The Greeley Company, author of the white paper.
