Greetings.
Hoping someone can clarify the meaning of this for me. Looking at an outpatient child job that eventually has a required RVU for base pay, and I was told that it was X percentile of the national average of RVU. I'm not sure where I would get ahold of such figures, and more importantly, how to translate that into seeing Y number of patients per week, or having Z number of patient-facing hours per week. I'm aware of the fact that depending on how I bill and how many patients I see per day or per hour, my RVUs can vary widely.
Given various percentiles of 'the national RVU psychiatry average,' how would 'work-volume' translate to, say, the 30th, 50th, or 70th percentiles?
Hope the question makes sense.
