Workday for
the people who
see patients.
What we hear
Three things clinic groups tell us.
Each has a usual cause. Turn one over.
Clinician pay
One shift. Five parts of Workday.
Paying a clinician correctly means five parts of Workday agreeing about one shift. When they don’t, it shows up in a paycheck.
We’ve set this up end to end, across all five.
ONE NIGHT SHIFT
Core HR
The job, the site, and the rate that goes with them.
Time tracking
The hours worked: nights, weekends, call.
Absence
Leave taken, and what it does to the count.
Benefits
Eligibility that moves with the hours.
Payroll
One paycheck, right the first time.

What makes it hard
Pay that adds up.
Three things make clinician pay harder than anyone else’s, and we have set up all three.
Shift differentials.
Nights, weekends and holidays, each at its own rate, following the hours wherever they are worked.
More than one job or rate.
One clinician holding more than one role, site or rate, including per-diem work alongside a regular job.
Productivity pay.
Pay that moves with the work done, most often measured in wRVUs.

Productivity pay
Out of the spreadsheet.
Many clinicians are paid partly on productivity, most often measured in wRVUs: work relative value units, a standard measure of the work in a visit or procedure. The numbers usually start life outside Workday.
In the work we did in-house, they were first worked out outside Workday and loaded in, and later brought in by integration. Our aim is always integration, and the whole thing inside Workday wherever it can be.
WHERE PRODUCTIVITY PAY LIVES
01
Where most start
In a spreadsheet
Worked out by hand and keyed into payroll. Every pay period is a risk.
02
A first step
Loaded into Workday
Still calculated outside, but it arrives in one load, and Workday holds the plan and the payment.
03
Better
Integrated
The numbers come straight from the system that records the work. Nobody re-keys anything.
04
Where possible
Inside Workday
The plan, the calculation and the payment in one place.

Also in healthcare
Beyond pay.
Three more areas we have worked in hands-on for clinical staff.
Who this is for
Clinic groups and physician practices.
We work best with multi-site clinic groups (urgent care, primary care, outpatient) and with physician groups and specialty practices that are already live on Workday.
This is work we did from the inside before we consulted on it. We know what a wrong paycheck costs you with a clinician.
How we work →
A fixed first step
Start with
one question.
Pick the one pay or staffing problem that bothers you most. In a short, fixed engagement we find out why it happens and hand you this: what we found, what we’d do, and in what order.
One question, a fixed length and a fixed price, both agreed before we start. You keep the findings whether or not you hire us for anything else.
Review findings
Sample
The question
Why are night-shift paychecks wrong at two of our sites?
What we’d leave alone
The pay calendar. It looks like a timing problem and isn’t.
