Job description does not include NCV/EMG. But the hospital doesn't have anyone doing these studies so they are sending them all out currently. I am thinking of offering to do some basic studies as time allows (CTS, radic, etc) with a conversion factor, e.g., add 1 wRVU per EMG patient, or multiply wRVU's by 1.5 or something.

Good/bad idea? Suggestions on reasonable/appropriate/fair conversion factor to make doing these worth the time?

PS- Sorry for the cross-post. Realized this is a better place to get a response.
