Jon from Contract Diagnostics discusses the topic of inflation and its impact on physicians' contracts. He emphasizes the importance of proactively addressing the issue of rising costs and suggests several strategies for physicians to consider. One strategy is to negotiate for periodic raises built into the contract, either as fixed amounts or tied to an inflationary index. Another option is to negotiate for a cost-of-living increase, which could be tied to a specific metric or capped at a certain percentage. Jon also mentions the possibility of negotiating for shorter contract terms with the opportunity to renegotiate at the end. He highlights the need to take into account factors such as inflation, CMS changes, production, and profitability when seeking future compensation increases.
