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.
