Endocrinology RVU productivity benchmarks and wRVU targets 2026
Median wRVU, percentile targets, compensation assumptions, productivity drivers, and common CPT codes for Endocrinology.
Specialty benchmark context
screen a target, review CPT mix and productivity drivers, model salary or contract terms, and document benchmark assumptions.
- Input
- Endocrinology annual wRVU target, CPT mix, geography, and dollars per wRVU
- Source basis
- Specialty benchmark assumptions, CPT mappings from CMS 2026 records, representative GPCI factors, salary assumptions, and user workflow inputs.
- Result boundary
- The page cannot determine offer fairness without contract terms, FTE definition, source-year benchmark detail, and employer-specific context.
Benchmark methodology
Use these numbers as modeled specialty assumptions, not as a licensed benchmark feed.
RVUinUSA specialty values are modeled specialty assumptions for workflow screening. They are not licensed MGMA, AMGA, or AAMC benchmark data, and they should be checked against the benchmark source named in a real contract or compensation policy.
The CMS-backed portions of this page are CPT and GPCI payment inputs. Specialty median wRVU, percentile, salary, and dollars-per-wRVU fields are planning assumptions for comparison, negotiation, and sensitivity review.

Contract interpretation
A Endocrinology offer should be compared against the median target of 5,000 wRVU, the 75th percentile target of 6,400 wRVU, and the proposed dollars per wRVU. A target above the 75th percentile can still be fair, but it needs matching conversion rate, support staffing, ramp-up time, and written guarantee language.
Percentile range
Use percentile ranges to understand whether a production target is conservative, median, aggressive, or very high.
| Percentile | wRVU/year |
|---|---|
| 25th | 3,900 |
| 50th | 5,000 |
| 75th | 6,400 |
| 90th | 7,900 |
CPT RVU component table
Review common CPT work RVU, practice expense RVU, malpractice RVU, setting, and modeled frequency before opening code-specific payment pages.
| CPT | Description | Work RVU | PE RVU | MP RVU | Setting | Typical freq/year | Productivity interpretation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 99214 | Office o/p est mod 30 minE/M visit workload | 1.92 | 2.00 | 0.14 | Non-facility | 868 | Good benchmark anchor for recurring visit volume, panel maturity, and schedule template assumptions. |
| 95251 | Cont gluc mntr analysis i&rHigh-frequency low-RVU service | 0.68 | 0.32 | 0.05 | Non-facility | 2,451 | Low wRVU per service; benchmark impact depends on repeatable volume and workflow support. |
| 82962 | Glucose blood test by monitoring deviceHigh-frequency low-RVU service | 0.00 | 0.12 | 0.00 | Non-facility | 6,667 | Low wRVU per service; benchmark impact depends on repeatable volume and workflow support. |
Typical frequency is a modeled benchmark helper, not a utilization claim. It divides the specialty median wRVU target across the listed CPT mix so users can see whether production is visit-heavy, interpretation-heavy, procedure-heavy, or mixed.
