MGMA tells you where physician comp settled last quarter. ClinicalRate tells you where clinical pay and bill rates are today — across 428 roles, refreshed daily.
MGMA DataDive is the establishment benchmark for physician and APP compensation — and for annual comp planning inside a medical group, it does that job well. But it is built from member-submitted survey data, published on a quarterly cadence, organized around employed-physician comp.
Healthcare staffing runs on a different clock. Bill rates move weekly. Travel and contingent pay moves daily. A pricing desk quoting against a 90-day-old survey is quoting against a market that no longer exists.
ClinicalRate is built for that desk: pay and bill rates across 428 canonical clinical roles — nursing, allied, advanced practice, and physician — refreshed every day, cut by state and metro, and delivered through a UI, a read API, and warehouse shares.
Different instruments for different jobs. Here is the capability-level view.
We sell against stale data, not against good instruments used for the right job.
For staffing pricing, yes — daily pay and bill rates replace quarterly survey lookups. For employed-physician comp planning and FMV documentation, many customers keep MGMA alongside ClinicalRate. They answer different questions.
Because contingent rates move on a weekly clock. In a fast-moving specialty, a quarterly number can be hundreds of basis points off by publication day. If you price 200 deals a month, that gap compounds into real margin.
The 428-role canonical taxonomy includes physician and advanced-practice roles, alongside the nursing and allied roles that surveys largely skip. Coverage depth varies by specialty and market — we’ll show you sample sizes for your roles before you buy.
Yes. Book a demo and bring an MGMA percentile you price against today — we’ll run the same role and market through the live platform so you can see the delta yourself.
Bring the MGMA number you quoted last week. We’ll run the same role and metro through the live platform and show you the gap.
