## Quick Answer

## Definition

An RVU (Relative Value Unit) calculator is a medical billing and productivity utility designed to calculate Medicare reimbursement and physician compensation. It aggregates Relative Value Units for physician work (wRVU), practice expense (peRVU), and malpractice (mpRVU), and optionally applies Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs) before multiplying the total by the annual CMS Conversion Factor to estimate payments.

## How to Use

1. **Enter component RVUs** — Input the physician work (wRVU), practice expense (peRVU), and malpractice (mpRVU) values.
2. **Choose adjustment mode** — Select whether to calculate the national unadjusted rate or apply geographical GPCIs.
3. **Verify conversion factor** — Confirm the annual CMS Conversion Factor (defaults to $32.35 for 2025).
4. **Read estimated payment** — Review the calculated total RVUs and the estimated Medicare reimbursement.
