Expansion of managed care, intensified price competition, and the introduction of the Medicare Fee Schedule have all affected physician compensation during the past decade. We examine trends in the salaries of medical school faculty, particularly MD clinical faculty, based on a more extensive salary database than has been used previously. Data collected through the Association of American Medical Colleges'Faculty Salary Survey for the academic years 1988-1989,1993-1994, and 1998-1999 were analyzed, and inflation-adjusted salary growth rates for clinical and basic science faculty during two 5-year periods, 1988-1993 and 1993-1998, compared across faculty ranks, departments, and various school characteristics. The comparison showed that, between 1988 and 1998, the actual median clinical faculty salary increased from $101 000 to $150000, and the actual median basic science faculty salary increased from $52 000 to $78000. Bivariate and multivariate analyses showed that the proportionate change in real mean salary (base year, 1988) in each 5-year period was related to department and faculty rank for clinical faculty (P<. and faculty rank for basic science the inflation-adjusted annualized compound growth rate of clinical salaries declined from per year to while increased>
