wrvu in sleep - Dr. Rack?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Between seeing patients and reading studies I do about 6000 RVU a year. My best single month ever I did about 1000 RVU, and it was hell.

Where any of that puts me in terms of percentiles, I have no idea.

How many rvu is a sleep study interp, vs level 3 new pt visit, vs level 3 outpt f/u visit?

thanks
 
neurologist - are you practicing 100% sleep, or neurology as well? From the data I have seen, the mean wRVU for sleep is about 8000, however that also correlates to a mean salary of about 370,000K.

Dr. Rack - from what i have seen, wRVU and RVU are different (as wRVU is a percentage of RVU). However overall
Interps are about 2.5 wRVU, 3.7 RVU
level 3 new pt 1.42 wRVU, 2.2 RVU
level 3 establish 0.97 wRVU, 1.45

hope that helps

I do a mix of sleep and neuro (about 50/50). Prorating your salary and RVU figures, with some adjustment for "regional market influences," approximates my salary,
