Salary or split? Pay a new therapist.

The right comp model depends on their billing rate and how full their schedule is. Compare salary vs split side by side, and find the break-even.

$6,000
Salary: they keep
you keep $3,000
$5,400
Split: they keep
you keep $3,600
67%
Break-even split

At $9,000 in billings, the salary and the split pay them the same when the split is about 67%. Below that the salary costs you more; above it the split does. Figures are before employer payroll taxes and benefits. See the whole team in the full Snapshot.
