esquemas de valor relativo
Scope note: Listas codificadas de servicios médicos u otros servicios profesionales que usan unidades que indican el valor relativo de los diversos servicios que prestan. Toman en cuenta el tiempo, la habilidad y los gastos generales requeridos por cada servicio, pero generalmente no consideran la relación coste-efectividad. Se pueden usar factores de conversión apropiados para traducir las unidades abstractas de las escalas de valor relativo en tarifas en dólares por cada servicio, basadas en el trabajo invertido, los costes del consultorio y los costes de formación.

Scope note: Coded listings of physician or other professional services using units that indicate the relative value of the various services they perform. They take into account time, skill, and overhead cost required for each service, but generally do not consider the relative cost-effectiveness. Appropriate conversion factors can be used to translate the abstract units of the relative value scales into dollar fees for each service based on work expended, practice costs, and training costs.
