Sumario:PURPOSE: This report investigated physician compensation studies by gender, race, and ethnicity. METHODS: Published U.S. physician compensation studies were assessed. RESULTS: Of the 47 data sets within 46 studies, 36 analyzed compensation by gender and 32 (88.9%) found disparities. Thirteen and eight analyzed for race and ethnicity, with disparities found in four (30.8%) and none, respectively. The sample sizes of the four data sets with differences by race were among the largest in the subset. CONCLUSION: Most studies demonstrate pay disparities for women, but not for people who identify with underrepresented race/ethnic groups; however, small sample sizes may affect results.
