Estimated compensation per wRVU

| Rate | $44.00 | $50.00 | $58.00 | $65.00 | 5,000 |
Estimates, not measured rates: $/wRVU ranges are curated industry reference values, and wRVUs/yr is a WeekdayDoc model (the specialty's common CPT codes × assumed annual counts × 2026 CMS work RVUs). CMS sets the RVU per code, not anyone's yearly volume. Use as a rough guide, and check a contract's own wRVU target and rate. Calculate your own $/wRVU →
