New PT Associate Pay Structure?

[Guest guest]

Our private ortho & sports PT clinic is looking to bring on a new physical

therapist and we would like to structure their position as an " associate " that

will be paid based on a percentage of how much gross revenue they bring to the

clinic.  A local doctor that we work with uses this structure at his clinic

and he says it works very well for the doctors. 

 

I was wondering if there are any PT clinics out there that use such a

structure?  What percentages do you use for PT's and how does that percentage

increase over the years?  What calculations do you use to determine the starting

percentage that they would receive?

 

We are just playing with the idea and the new structure.  We feel it is

important to compensate our PT's well for their production at the clinic.  Any

ideas?  Thanks.

 

Sincerely,
