Benchmarking is a current term used to describe a process that has always been applied but perhaps not in the same way as it is today. That process involves comparing business statistics to historical data or to the same type of data gathered across a wider spectrum. In our May 2019 article How Benchmarking Can Help Radiology Practices Evaluate Their Productivity, we discussed the use of RVUs (Relative Value Units) as a measure of radiologist productivity. This is only one statistic, or metric, that can be used to evaluate a practice’s performance.
