CY FTE and NY FTE are used for allocating the guarantee if the provider is split amongst multiple departments. They are also used in the FICA calculation when a portion of the salary is grossed up.

Additional Salary Amounts

Use this section to add components that are physician specific. You can use the first five categories to add on salary components such as directorships, honorariums, and other types of compensation that need to be added to their compensation. These rows are included in the FICA calculation.

Additional Benefit Amounts

Use this section to add components that are physician specific. You can use the last five categories to add on provider-specific expenses such as CME (Continuing Medical Education), phone allowance, malpractice, etc.

These rows are excluded from the FICA calculation. You need to assign a pay type for each category you use. You will need to add these codes to your PayType tab in dimensions as they are used to save this additional information to the Payroll12 database for each provider. We recommend that they are prefixed with Z_ so they do not interfere with your normal pay types.

If you do not want to use a category, leave the yellow cell blank. Use the blue drop-down cell to identify how to spread the expense in the Budget workbook. Options are: Even, FTE, Salary.

Provider Hours Spread

From the drop-down, do the following:

  • To spread the hours on the Provider Comp tab evenly, select Even.
  • To spread the hours by FTE allocation, select FTE.
