Why there's no national value

CMS designates this code "carrier-priced" (status C): rather than setting one national work RVU, each local Medicare Administrative Contractor sets its own price, so the number varies by region and isn't published in the national Physician Fee Schedule. For productivity tracking, a commonly used local estimate is 0.20 work RVU — confirm against your own MAC or group contract before relying on it for pay.
