Source & method

This page uses CMS's Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Q4 2024 release (effective October 2024). National baselines use GPCI 1.000 and exclude sequestration. Whether a national amount exists depends on the status and CMS’s payment instructions; blank RVUs are never treated as zero. Past releases are never edited, so these sources stay valid after CMS publishes a newer one. Our methodology explains sourcing, parsing, versioning, and how we cross-check claims before we publish them.

The citation names the release, so anyone can check it even after CMS publishes a newer one.
