Information about SHM's Survey Process

SHM has historically conducted a bi-annual survey of the characteristics of hospital medicine groups, including hospitalist compensation and productivity. In 2009 SHM and the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) joined forces to jointly conduct the most comprehensive and reliable survey of hospital medicine groups yet.

SHM and MGMA enjoyed a very successful survey collaboration in 2010 and 2011. Working together under a Survey Collaboration Agreement, the two groups have been able to provide an unprecedented amount of high quality information for our members—data about hospitalist compensation and productivity, but also about many other aspects of the ways hospitalists and hospital medicine groups function. And while our relationship with MGMA remains strong, all good things must come to an end—or at least change considerably.

Beginning in 2012, MGMA continues to collect compensation and productivity information about hospitalists, and SHM has conducted a separate survey on other characteristics of hospital medicine groups. Data from both surveys will be combined in SHM's 2012 State of Hospital Medicine report, again resulting in the most complete and authoritative source of information about hospital medicine available anywhere.
