The MGMA alternative

The MGMA alternative — self-serve pay benchmarks with real-take-home math, a tenth of the price.

If you need self-serve market-pay benchmarks with real take-home (after tax and cost-of-living) and coverage of every state and metro, you should not have to buy $25k+ membership survey reports. WageBench gives you that, self-serve, at a tenth of the price — while MGMA stays the gold standard for contract-grade physician-comp survey depth and RVU productivity.

We're not for everyone

MGMA is the better pick if you need:

  • The gold-standard physician-compensation survey trusted in contract and offer negotiations.
  • Specialty and subspecialty compensation depth WageBench does not match.
  • RVU and productivity benchmarks for measuring physician output.
  • Permanent physician compensation depth across practice settings.

Bottom line: WageBench for self-serve market pay benchmarks with real-take-home + cost-of-living math at a tenth of the price; MGMA for contract-grade physician-comp survey depth + RVU.
