On the cover this month: Transplantation has always been viewed as a multispecialty discipline, dependent on the aggregate actions of many diverse professionals. As healthcare reform moves us to more explicitly value the actions involved in care delivery, transplant clinicians will need to determine how best to establish compensation methods that recognize the complexity of the profession. This month, Abouljoud et al (page 601 ) present a novel model for establishing value for the purpose of setting compensation. Also see the editorial comment by Abecassis and Pearson (page 579 ) and a related brief communication on transplant surgeon burnout by Jesse et al (page 772 ).
