Warren Surveys (formerly known
as Henry W. Warren & Associates) was established 27 years ago by Henry W.
Warren, a former employee of HCFA (Health Care Financing Administration) who was
in on the ground floor of reviewing Federal Qualification Applications for HMO
start-up organizations in the early seventies, the growth of which was fueled by
President Nixon’s announcement of a new national health care strategy – the
development of health maintenance organizations (HMOs) established through
federal grants and loan guarantees.
During this time, Henry Warren recognized the need for a reliable source of
benchmark salary information unique to HMOs. Upon his retirement in 1980, Mr.
Warren developed and conducted the first ever HMO compensation survey, entitled
The HMO Executive Salary Survey. This first issue started with only 48
participating organizations – nearly all of which we independently owned Staff
and Group Model HMOs. The survey covered only 12 top executive and mid-level
management positions and 4 primary care physician specialties.
In 1986, the survey was purchased by DeMarco & Associates, Inc., an Illinois
based corporation and today is known as Warren Surveys.
The HMO Salary Survey is the most widely known and most comprehensive tool for
salary administration and staff retention not only within HMOs, but the managed
care industry as a whole. With the valuable input from our subscribers, our
survey products have grown and changed to meet this evolving sector of our
health care delivery system. The HMO Salary Survey now covers 195 positions and
includes over 350 participating organizations representing 1125 locations
nationwide.
We have also developed our Allied Health Care & Physician Compensation and
Benefits Survey to meet the needs of different segments of our health care
system including not only HMOs, but hospital systems, university based entities,
community health centers, physician/hospital organizations and ambulatory care
centers that employ clinical staff. This survey covers 94 allied health
positions including 23 in the behavioral health area, as well as 32 physician
specialties.
Our Managed Care Staffing Ratio Update is a relatively new endeavor on the part
of Warren Surveys. We first published in 1999, again in 2001 and in 2004. We
will be publishing another update in the summer of 2007. The results of this
survey are intended to assist health plans in determining appropriate staffing
levels within their organizations.
