Join us as we explore two compelling case studies featuring Jon Appino, the driving force behind Contract Diagnostics. In the first, three interventional radiologists, earning over $700k but under-compensated by market standards, sought Jon’s expertise to update their outdated eight-year pay structure. Despite paying their own malpractice insurance and having no paid leave, these highly productive physicians successfully negotiated fair compensation, increased profit sharing, and better terms for malpractice insurance. The second case study highlights a group of general surgeons at a small community hospital who faced similar challenges. With Jon’s strategic guidance, they secured significant pay increases, a $50,000 annual quality bonus, and updated renegotiation terms, setting a precedent for future physician contract negotiations.

Jon Appino has been the driving force behind Contract Diagnostics since 2011, where he leads a dedicated team on a mission to empower physicians with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to negotiate robust employment contracts and secure the best compensation packages.

He discusses the KevinMD articles, “A case study: How group negotiations led to better contracts for interventional radiologists” and “A group of 4 successful surgeons negotiate better contracts: a case study.”
