Physician Compensation Analyst

About the role

The Physician Compensation Analyst is the primary analytical partner for Gillette’s performance‑based compensation program. This role is dedicated to owning the back‑end wRVU calculations, RVU crosswalks, and compensation impact modeling that convert coding, billing, and productivity data into accurate, auditable figures. This role reports up through Revenue Cycle Management and partners closely with the Physician Compensation Program Specialist, the Specialty Services Manager, Coding, Chargemaster, Providers, and the Medical Staff Office.

At Gillette Children’s, we foster a culture where every team member feels a sense of belonging and purpose. We are dedicated to building an environment where all feel welcomed, respected, and supported. Our values are embedded at the heart of our culture. We act first from love, embrace the bigger picture, and work side‑by‑side with our patients, families, and colleagues to help every child create their own story. Together, we work to ensure patients of all backgrounds and abilities reach their full potential.

Responsibilities

• Pull, reconcile, and maintain CPT/HCPCS code volume and mix data
• Build and maintain the CPT‑to‑wRVU crosswalk table, updating for annual CMS Physician Fee Schedule changes
• Calculate provider‑ and specialty‑level wRVUs and maintain historical trend data for seasonality and mix shifts
• Model the productivity and compensation impact of RVU or coding changes (e.g., CMS efficiency adjustments, specialty mix shifts) by provider, specialty, and site
• Produce scenario comparisons (e.g., hold‑harmless/shadow RVUs, adjusted dollar‑per‑wRVU, adjusted thresholds) for leadership review
• Run periodic “shadow vs. actual” tracking so variance can be explained before it surprises a provider or a budget
• Build and maintain the underlying performance and productivity reports that the Physician Compensation Program Specialist delivers to physicians, ensuring calculation accuracy and clarity before physician‑facing use
• Build and maintain recurring productivity/compensation dashboards (Excel and/or Power BI)
• Support annual budget and compensation‑planning cycles with forecasts and year‑over‑year comparisons
• Validate consistency of provider‑level RVU and compensation data across coding, billing, and comp/HR systems; investigate and resolve discrepancies at the source
• Document modeling methodology and assumptions so results are reproducible and auditable
• Participate in relevant salary/productivity survey data submissions (e.g., MGMA DataDive) from a data‑preparation standpoint
• Act as the data resource for the Physician Compensation Program Specialist and Medical Staff Office on physician compensation data questions
• Coordinate with Gillette's enterprise Data Analytics/IT department as needed for source‑system data access, extracts, and infrastructure — this role owns the physician compensation modeling itself
