New grad PA offer - Vague RVU bonus structure in contract?

Less than 1 year out of school and received an offer in my preferred specialty at a private clinic (recently acquired by PE).

Base salary is on the lower end, but during my site visit the MD mentioned quarterly RVU/productivity bonuses that could add ~$10k–30k annually.

However, the contract only includes a short, vague paragraph about bonus eligibility with no details on:

  • RVU targets
  • Conversion rates ($/RVU)
  • Thresholds or payout structure

Given that I’m leaving my current job partly due to a mismatch between contract and pay structure, I want to avoid that happening again.

Is it reasonable to ask for full RVU/bonus details (ideally in writing) before signing? Or is this something people typically figure out after starting?

Specialty: outpatient OB/GYN

Region: Midwest
