Productivity/bonus and Stark Law


Recommended Posts

Hello!

I work in internal medicine (outpatient) and am going on year 3 and now qualify for bonus. However, my employer told us providers that we can't get "individual productivity bonuses" anymore due to the "Stark Law" making it illegal and said our incentive would have to be shared (instead of individual) based on productivity of all 3 providers (1 MD and 2 PAs). We have an ultrasound company that comes to our office twice a month, do in office DEXAs, exercise stress tests, audiometry, and spirometry. She made it sound as though it's illegal to get bonus based on additional services we order that we perform in our office. It just doesn't sound right... Is anyone familiar with this?

If it is correct information, how else are providers getting individual productivity bonuses? Thanks!!
