Relative
Under the Resource-Based Relative Value Scale (RBRVS), the unit value is referred to as the Relative Value Unit (RVU). RVUs are a measure used to determine the value of medical services based on three components: work, practice expense, and malpractice expense. These units help in calculating reimbursement rates for healthcare providers by reflecting the resources and effort required for different services. The RVU system aims to standardize payments and promote fairness in the reimbursement process.

The three components of a measured volume are the unit of measurement (e.g., liters, milliliters), the numerical value representing the amount of substance, and the specific container or instrument used to measure the volume.

RVU, or Relative Value Unit, is a measure used in healthcare to evaluate the value of medical services and procedures. It takes into account three components: the work involved (physician time and effort), practice expenses (overhead costs), and malpractice risk. RVUs help determine reimbursement rates for healthcare providers under Medicare and other insurance programs, facilitating standardized payment for services across different specialties and geographic locations.
