CPT to RVU conversion improves model performance in the prediction of surgical case length

Abstract Methods used to predict surgical case time often rely upon the current procedural terminology (CPT) code as a nominal variable to train machine-learned models, however this limits the ability of the model to incorporate new procedures and adds complexity as the number of unique procedures i...
