Description
The third edition of this perennial bestseller from MGMA is filled with examples, calculations and spreadsheets, and is the single-best source for information on applying RVUs in medical practices.
Relative value units (RVUs), based on Medicare’s Resource-Based Relative Value Scale (RBRVS), have proven to be the most popular tool for measuring key elements of medical practices’ fundamental activities, such as physician productivity and procedure costs.
Using RVUs as a basis for measuring what your practice produces and how much it costs affords greater confidence when making decisions regarding physician compensation, new service lines, payer contract negotiation and more.
