Withhold arrangements seem tricky; I thought they could still impact base income, but I might be mixing that up with something else.

The idea that bonus pools based on specific providers are easier to manage sounds familiar, but I wonder if that's always true.

I think I saw a practice question about hospital bonus pools, and it mentioned splitting with PCPs, but I can't recall the details.

Haha, Option D is a good one. Withhold arrangements may eliminate risk, but they also eliminate the fun of actually getting paid!

Option C seems the most accurate to me. Bonus pools based on specific providers are definitely easier to manage than those based on the entire plan's performance.
