General Guidance• To the extent possible, both parties should sign
off jointly on major assumptions
• Trade offs in quality, timeliness, and believability will dictate whether or not an appraisal can be delivered
• Working closely with qualified counsel will help ensure you are making assumptions and using data consistent with the legal opinion

Standard of Value• From R.R. 59-60 to “Healthcare FMV”
• Entity to Compensation Valuation
• Implications to Appraisers
11
![Page 12: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Fair Market Value (R.R. 59-60)
The typical standard of value is classically defined by Revenue Ruling 59-60:
“The price at which property would change hands between a willing buyer and willing seller, neither party being under any compulsion to buy or sell, and both having reasonable knowledge of all relevant facts, with equity to both.”
12
![Page 13: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Fair Market Value (Stark)“…the value in an arm’s length transactions, consistent with the general market value. ‘General market value’ means the price that an asset would bring, as the result of a bona fide bargaining between well-informed buyers and sellers who are not otherwise in a position to generate business for the other party….” (Stark regulations at 42 CFR § 351)
13
![Page 14: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fair Market Value in Management Services Arrangements
• Same standard of value as entity valuation
• “Ultimately, fair market value is determined based on facts and circumstances. The appropriate method will depend on the nature of the transaction, its location, and other factors.” (Federal Register, Vol. 72, No. 171, CMS, 42 CFR Parts 411 and 424)
14
![Page 15: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Implications of Stark Standard of Value
• Avoid “investment value” • No consideration of downstream referrals
• No consideration of hospital rates
• No consideration of specific economies of scale
• Limitations on use of opportunity cost
• Deal must make sense between purely arms’-length players

![Page 17: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Methodologies: Survey Benchmarking
Description – Survey benchmarking captures the range of compensation paid for labor and other goods and services in the marketplace.
Application – By benchmarking the subject arrangement to market pricing, one can infer fair market value (especially if benchmark data is not referral based).
17
![Page 18: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Methodologies: Survey Benchmarking
Limitations – Survey data may not capture entity risk and is not available for certain goods and services.
Cautions – Careful matching of service type to survey data may call for adjustments to make an appropriate comparison (independent contractor status, etc.).

Methodologies: Survey Benchmarking
General Guidelines
•Compensation commensurate with productivity
•Consider isolating clinical and non-clinical sources of income
•Be cautious with utilizing compensation per WRVU survey data

Methodologies: Cost Mark-up
Description – Cost mark-up approaches seek to determine and apply a profit to the costs of the goods and services to be provided on a risk adjusted basis.
Application – Discrete cost pools must be determined by type and care must be taken that mark-ups appropriately match services.
22
![Page 23: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Methodologies: Cost Mark-up
Limitations – Ascribing value to costs may create an incentive to increase costs and the methodology may fail to recognize the value of efficiencies.
Cautions – Markups should be applied to discrete pools of costs to avoid double dipping.

Methodologies: Cost Mark-up
Guidelines
•What is really being received by the purchaser?
•Confusing cost of capital and acceptable rate of return
•Adjusting for risk
24
![Page 25: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Methodologies: Management Fee Benchmarking
Description – A percentage of facility revenues is used for a fee to be paid for a contractual bundle of goods and services.
Application – A determination is made that the services under consideration for FMV has a sufficient match to market data that a pricing inference can be drawn and relied upon.
26
![Page 27: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Methodologies: Management Fee Benchmarking
Limitations – Benchmark data is typically unclear as to what goods and services are included in an arrangement, which can create matching issues.
Cautions – Assumptions utilized in drawing comparisons on rates will need to be reasonable in order to support this approach.

Co-Mgmt. Case Study - Facts• Hospital seeks to align with a group of
orthopedic surgeons to develop a Spine Institute (SI).
• Hospital believes the development of a SI will greatly increase patient access and improve care coordination with its substantial employed primary care physician group.
• Hospital has a not for profit tax status.
41
![Page 42: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Co-Mgmt. Case Study - Facts• Hospital believes the involvement of
community physicians in the development of its SI is critical to the clinical success of the program and in its marketing efforts to the community.
• Therefore, Hospital proposes a co-management arrangement with a small group of spine surgeons.

On-Call Coverage Case Study – Facts• Hospital has an identified need to provide
more consistent general surgery trauma coverage as its recent ER expansion has yielded more acute cases than anticipated.
• Hospital does not employ any general surgeons trained to treat trauma cases and cannot otherwise convince qualified surgeons to volunteer to provider necessary coverage.
48
![Page 49: Fair Market Value of Physician Compensation Appraisal Theory and Applications Presented by: Randy Biernat, CPA/ABV 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082212/56649e3a5503460f94b2c6dc/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
On-Call Coverage Case Study – Facts• Hospital believes the engagement of qualified
trauma surgeons will improve patient outcomes and enhance its reputation in the community.
• Therefore, hospital agrees to pay a pool of five local general surgeons qualified in trauma surgery a fair market value rate for 24/7/365 coverage of its emergency department.

On-Call Coverage Case Study - Facts• Hospital proposes the physicians to provide
the following services:– Unrestricted (“beeper”) call with a phone response
time of 10 minutes and on-site consultation within 30 minutes, as necessary, and a named back-up
– Other terms include a penalty for failure to respond, a fmv re-evaluation provision, an evergreen clause, a statement of the physicians’ right to bill for services rendered while on call, etc.
