How to Use This Calculator
- Enter Avg wRVU per visit based on your typical E&M mix (Level 3 ≈ 1.3, Level 4 ≈ 1.92, Level 5 ≈ 2.8 wRVUs).
- Input Patient visits per day, Clinic days per week, and Clinical weeks per year (after vacation, CME, and holidays).
- Enter the Medicare conversion factor (2026: $33.40) and your Payer mix multiplier for commercial payers.
- Review Annual wRVUs to compare against MGMA specialty-specific benchmark percentiles.
- Check Payer-mix adjusted revenue for a realistic annual revenue projection given your actual payer mix.
- Use MGMA percentile (est.) to identify whether the provider is at median productivity and plan compensation accordingly.
How the result changes with Avg wRVU per visit

| 23 | 99,360 | $3,982,348.80 |
What each input means
- Avg wRVU per visit
- Average work RVU generated per patient encounter. E&M level 3 ≈ 1.3, level 4 ≈ 1.92, level 5 ≈ 2.8.
- Patient visits per day
- Average number of patient encounters per clinic day.
- Clinic days per week
- Days per week with scheduled patient appointments.
- Clinical weeks per year
- Weeks worked after vacation, CME, and holidays.
- Medicare conversion factor ($)
- CMS Medicare Physician Fee Schedule conversion factor. 2026 CF = $33.40.
- Payer mix multiplier
- Blended reimbursement relative to Medicare. Commercial payers typically 1.2-1.8x Medicare.
What each result means
- Annual wRVUs
- Total work RVUs produced per year.
- wRVUs per day
- Average daily wRVU production.
- wRVUs per month
- Average monthly wRVU production.
- Medicare-equivalent revenue
- Annual revenue if all payers reimbursed at Medicare rates.
- Payer-mix adjusted revenue
- Estimated annual revenue after payer mix adjustment.
- Revenue per wRVU

How this is calculated
Worked example, using the default values
- Identify Input Parameters4 parametersAvg wRVU per visit = 1.5, Patient visits per day = 20, Clinic days per week = 4.5, Clinical weeks per year = 48 = 6 input(s) provided
- Calculate Annual wRVUsAnnual wRVUs = avgWrvuPerVisit * visitsPerDay * clinicDaysPerWeek * weeksPerYear6480 = 6480
- Calculate Payer-mix adjusted revenuePayer-mix adjusted revenue = medicareRevenue * payerMixMultiplier259718.4 = $259,718.4
- Calculate wRVUs per daywRVUs per day = avgWrvuPerVisit * visitsPerDay30 = 30
- Calculate wRVUs per monthwRVUs per month = totalWRVUs / 12540 = 540
