Earlier this year, Mathematica launched the clinician practice information (CPI) survey to a random sample of audiologists selected by National Provider Identifier (NPI) numbers.
The Academy encourages members to continue with routine monitoring of email folders (inbox, spam, etc.) for communication about the CPI survey. Any audiologist, not just Academy or American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) members, with an NPI could be selected randomly and would receive an email directly from Mathematica with instructions. Please check with other audiologists and the management at your facility to encourage their participation if they received the communication via email or postal mail from Mathematica.
The CPI survey is the partner survey to the physician practice information (PPI) survey, and together they collect updated data on practice expenses across health care disciplines and specialties. The Academy and ASHA have contracted with Mathematica for the audiology portion.
See the original announcement from the Academy and ASHA for more details. We recognize that the survey is quite detailed and appreciate members’ willingness to contribute accurate data on practice costs.
