The use of relative value units to measure the productivity of nurse clinicians in four primary care practices is described. Relative value points and equivalent dollar values assigned to services provided by professionals yielded a different assessment of productivity than that provided by a count of patient visits. The physician-nurse clinician teams studied were only 6 percent more productive than the physician-nurse teams when productivity was measured by the number of patient visits processed during an 8-hour period but were 26 percent more productive in terms of the value of services they produced per day.
本文描述了使用相对价值单位来衡量四个初级保健机构中护士临床医生的生产力。分配给专业人员所提供服务的相对价值点和等效美元价值，对生产力的评估与通过患者就诊次数得出的评估不同。当以8小时内处理的患者就诊次数来衡量生产力时，所研究的医生 - 护士临床医生团队的生产力仅比医生 - 护士团队高6%，但就他们每天所产生服务的价值而言，其生产力高26%。
