By area, and what the calculation leaves out1 area
| Area | Clinicians | Median change | Middle half |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States | 8,921 | −3.6% | −4.1% to −3.0% |
104 codes are new in the 2027 proposed rule (not in any 2024 code mix); 53 codes move to a national rate from a 2026 status without one (carrier-priced and others); lines in those codes are left out of the calculation.
Each clinician’s own figure, with the codes behind it, is in the Physician Report. How this is calculated.
Telehealth-only services and setting, Hematology-Oncology, 2020–2024
In 2024, 0.5% of Hematology-Oncology Medicare work nationally was in telehealth-only services (2.0% in 2020), a floor of all telehealth work; 65% was billed at the office (non-facility) rate and 34% at the facility rate.
Share of work by setting, by year: table1 area
United States: share of calculated Medicare work RVUs by setting
| Year | Telehealth-only | Office rate | Facility rate | Clinicians | Share with any telehealth-only |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | 2.0% | 64% | 34% | 8,332 | 39% |
| 2021 | 1.2% | 64% | 35% | 8,436 | 24% |
| 2022 | 0.9% | 65% | 34% | 8,586 | 19% |
| 2023 | 0.6% | 65% | 34% | 8,659 | 14% |
| 2024 | 0.5% | 65% | 34% | 8,922 | 12% |
Telehealth-only services are codes that exist only as remote services (telephone and online visits, virtual check-ins, telehealth consultations). The share is a floor, not total telehealth: CMS publishes the place of service only as facility or non-facility and does not publish telehealth modifiers, so a video visit billed with an ordinary visit code is counted in the setting CMS records. Every year is weighted at the 2024 work relative values, so a share moves only when the services billed move. Cells of at least 11 clinicians. How this is calculated.
