Getting paid by the case

[heather2084]

Does anyone work or have work or have heard about how this works where staff is paid by the case instead of number of hours worked? This was mentioned in a meeting this morning and it sounds like a horrible idea, especially when you count in long cases vs BMT's and tonsillectomies.

Looking for some input on this subject

Flat rate would most definitely suck for me today. Our schedule is very slow: in my room I have one 30 min cysto retro at 7:30, and another at 2:00. That's it, unless there have been add-ons..
