By area, and what the calculation leaves out1 area
| Area | Clinicians | Median change | Middle half |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States | 2,712 | −3.4% | −3.9% to −2.8% |
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, Pain Management, 2020–2024
In 2024, 0.4% of Pain Management Medicare work nationally was in telehealth-only services (1.9% in 2020), a floor of all telehealth work; 74% was billed at the office (non-facility) rate and 26% 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 | 1.9% | 72% | 26% | 2,431 | 30% |
| 2021 | 1.3% | 72% | 27% | 2,523 | 18% |
| 2022 | 0.9% | 73% | 27% | 2,561 | 12% |
| 2023 | 0.5% | 73% | 26% | 2,655 | 8% |
| 2024 | 0.4% | 74% | 26% | 2,713 | 7% |
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.
