Endocrinology wRVU Rate 2026
What Endocrinology attending physicians are paid per work RVU (wRVU), from 54 approved SalaryDr reports, data as of March 28, 2025.
What a wRVU rate is
A work relative value unit (wRVU) measures the physician work in a service: the scale Medicare uses to price visits and procedures gives every billing code a number of wRVUs for its time, skill and intensity. A wRVU rate (or conversion factor) is what an employer pays for each wRVU a physician is credited with.
Productivity pay is the rate times the volume. Many contracts pay a base salary and apply the rate only to wRVUs above a threshold, so the same rate can mean different pay under different contracts.
Illustration, not SalaryDr data
5,000 wRVUs × $62.00 per wRVU = $310,000 in productivity pay.
The rate is the Endocrinology median above; 5,000 wRVUs is a round number chosen for the arithmetic, not a benchmark. SalaryDr does not publish wRVU volumes because too few reports include them.
Total compensation, for context
The median Endocrinology attending on SalaryDr reports $360,000 in total compensation, from 61 approved reports. That includes base salary, bonuses and other pay, so it is not simply rate × volume. See Endocrinology salary data.

Where does this wRVU data come from?
From compensation Endocrinology attendings reported to SalaryDr, approved by moderation before publication (reports are not NPI-verified). Rates outside $20–$200 per wRVU are excluded as entry errors and outliers beyond 1.5×IQR are trimmed. Every figure needs at least 5 reports left after trimming, the 10th and 90th percentiles need 15, and figures from 24 or fewer are rounded to the whole dollar.
