Vantaggi
The physician I worked for and the MA I worked with (our "pod") was amazing. We were an outstanding team. We had the toughest schedule of all the other pods with OT by every Friday morning.
Svantaggi
USMD is allowing non physician corporate folks to run USMD "A physician led company". The manager's full time job is to justify their own salaries, or need for them full time. Way too many managers with little actual hands on medical office experience telling everyone with the experience what they're doing wrong on a monthly basis and in the two years I was there I got not one penny raise. Nor did the MA I worked with and a few others I was hired with. We were promised the possibility of large bonuses that were dependent on our measures with Wellmed in December 2014 if we just bring those numbers up by the next December. We turned a meezly 9% met into a 90% met yet when it was time for that bonus HR told me that we did not meet our measures as a clinic whole so we didn't get any bonus which ironically turned out to be our opportunity for that as our raise that year.
