Share of work by setting, by year: table2 areas
South Carolina: share of calculated Medicare work RVUs by setting
| Year | Telehealth-only | Office rate | Facility rate | Clinicians | Share with any telehealth-only |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 0.0% | 96% | 4% | 42 | 0% |
United States: share of calculated Medicare work RVUs by setting
| Year | Telehealth-only | Office rate | Facility rate | Clinicians | Share with any telehealth-only |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | under 0.1% | 92% | 8% | 2,285 | 0% |
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.
