Slowing Down

Vincent J. Menna MD1
 1 Doylestown, PA

I am a member of a four-person general pediatric practice, and one of my partners has recently expressed the desire to "slow down." This presented a problem in our situation because the workload and compensation are equally divided among the full partners. We wanted to be fair to everyone involved.

I consulted several friends who are in groups that have had a similar situation. No one seemed to be entirely satisfied with his solution. The major problem is equitable compensation. The largest income in a general pediatric practice is generated from 9 AM to 5 PM during the weekdays. However, nights and weekends are the reason many individuals leave practice, voluntarily or involuntarily.
