Risk Assessment Summary
High Risk: Physician compensation formula does not meet Stark Law independent contractor standard. Recommend obtaining external FMV appraisal and restructuring to productivity-based model.

Mitigation Priority 1 (30 days): Commission written vendor agreement with FMV justification. Obtain Board approval. Document business purpose.
