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 11400 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.88 + 2.84 + 0.11) × $33.4009 ≈ $127.93. The same code in a facility setting pays about $76.49 because facility PE RVU (1.3) replaces office PE RVU.
