How the payment is calculated
Total RVU is work plus practice expense plus malpractice, each adjusted by its GPCI factor, then multiplied by the conversion factor. For 0605T in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0 + 22.64 + 0.07) × $33.4009 ≈ $758.53. The same code in a facility setting pays about $758.53 because facility PE RVU (22.64) replaces office PE RVU.
