4 Physician Alignment Options 4

5 Legal Framework The Rule Book Federal laws Stark Law Anti-Kickback Law IRS Tax Exemption State laws Illinois Medical Practice Act has a fee-splitting prohibition Illinois anti-kickback and self-referral prohibitions 5

6 Legal Framework: Common Themes Is the compensation consistent with the fair market value (FMV)? Value in arm s length transactions, consistent with the general market value: General market value: The compensation that would be included in a service agreement as the result of bona fide bargaining between well-informed parties to the agreement who are not otherwise in a position to generate business for the other party, at the time of the service agreement. Fair market price: Generally based on bona fide comparable services agreements, where the compensation has not taken into account the volume or value of anticipated or actual referrals. (42 C.F.R ) 6

7 Legal Framework: Common Themes (II) Is the arrangement commercially reasonable? Assessing commercial reasonableness is separate from the analysis of FMV: While FMV applies to the level of compensation for the physician s services, commercial reasonableness applies to broader business issues related to the arrangement. Commercial reasonableness is especially important in arrangements that include compensation for administrative and other non-clinical services. The services covered by the arrangement should be essential to the operation of the hospital/system and/or to addressing specific community needs Services provided are fully described. Hospital demonstrates sound business reason/need for the services. Physician must actually provide the services as evidenced by records/reviews. 7

8 Valuation Considerations Document and define the need Review various methods of compensation: Medical Directorships Co-Management Agreements On-Call Pay Base Salary Productivity-Based Quality Bonus Sign-on Bonus Relocation Bonus Performance Incentive Drive Time Loan Forgiveness Benefits Determine financial pro forma with new compensation arrangement Determining fair market value Reviewing multiple market surveys. Considering unique factors, including availability of such physician services in the rural market. 8

9 Risks to Watch Out For Guaranteed Compensation Long-term Contracts Stacking payments Not including all aspects of compensation in fair market value calculations No compensation cap Proposed compensation and purchase price Inconsistency 9
