Hospital-based physicians (HBPs) have been the recipients of considerable attention in health policy debates in recent years. This paper discusses issues and trends concerning HBPs and presents evidence on practice characteristics, compensation methods, and incomes of anesthesiologists, pathologists, and radiologists. Some comparisons with office-based MDs are included. The primary data source is composed of physician surveys sponsored by the Health Care Financing Administration and conducted by the National Opinion Research Center in 1977 and 1978. Findings generated from these surveys support past research showing that radiology is the most lucrative HBP specialty, followed by pathology and anesthesiology; hospital-based practice tends to be considerably more lucrative than office-based practice, taken as a whole. Survey findings are discussed in light of current policy developments in the health services sector.
近年来，医院医生（HBPs）在卫生政策辩论中受到了极大关注。本文讨论了与医院医生相关的问题和趋势，并提供了关于麻醉科医生、病理科医生和放射科医生的执业特点、薪酬方式和收入的证据。还包括了与门诊医生的一些比较。主要数据来源是由医疗保健财务管理局赞助、美国国家民意研究中心在1977年和1978年进行的医生调查。这些调查得出的结果支持了以往的研究，即放射科是最赚钱的医院医生专科，其次是病理科和麻醉科；总体而言，医院执业往往比门诊执业更赚钱。根据卫生服务部门当前的政策发展对调查结果进行了讨论。
