Why Ludi?
Health systems standardize on Ludi for physician compensation software they can defend.
Why Health Care Leaders Standardize on Ludi
On schedule is not the same as accurate. It’s rare that we onboard a new client without finding errors in their prior physician payments. Physician compensation is complex and often vital information sits in siloed systems and spreadsheets. Ludi delivers one source of truth for every way your physicians and clinicians are paid and has the depth of physician compensation experience to support even your most complex physician arrangements.

Trust starts with the paycheck
Ask a physician how they were paid last month and most cannot tell you. They see a number, not a reason. That is a retention problem, and it is fixable.

Ludi FAQs
The question is usually not replacement. The failures in physician compensation happen at the handoffs, not inside any one tool, so a system that works is not the same as the pieces working together. The question worth asking is which system is right when an FTE change lands mid-cycle. Today someone answers that by hand, and that person is the integration.
Most evaluations compare feature lists. The differences that decide the next three years show up in five questions instead, and they are worth asking every vendor on your list, including us.
Walk one calculation end to end. From the raw data to the number on a physician’s statement. Ask to see the rule that produced it, not the result.
Ask who will be in the room during implementation, and who they work for.Then ask whether any part of setup or support is subcontracted, partnered, or offshored, and ask for it in writing.
Ask to see a mid-cycle change. An FTE change, a plan amendment, a retroactive correction. Ask what breaks, who fixes it, and how long it takes.
Ask which arrangements the platform does not cover. Every platform has an edge. Ask specifically about three-party indirect arrangements, professional services agreements, and the physician who covers one weekend a month.
Ask where AI actually runs. Whether you can turn it off, whether a person is accountable for what it produces, and whether your data trains anything. Ask for that answer in writing too.
Ludi employees, all of them based in the United States. Nothing is offshored and no part of your setup or your support is subcontracted to a consulting firm. The people who build the platform are the people who set it up and the people who answer when you call, which means the team accountable for your platform has no separate engagement to sell you. Strategic Services, our in-house compensation and managed services team, is there when you want that kind of help, and it is the same team either way.
DocTime is where Ludi started. It is how physicians record time and activity against an arrangement, and it is now one part of The Ludi Platform rather than the whole of what Ludi does. The platform runs every way physicians and clinicians get paid, employed and independent, from wRVU and productivity plans to every supplemental arrangement in between, with an audit trail behind every number. If you last looked at Ludi as a time tracking tool, that is the part that has changed.
That is common and it is not a conflict. Ludi does the implementation either way, with our own in-house team. If your firm is engaged on compensation strategy, that work sits alongside the platform rather than inside it.
