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 20663 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (5.6 + 7.11 + 1.21) × $33.4009 ≈ $464.94. The same code in a facility setting pays about $464.94 because facility PE RVU (7.11) replaces office PE RVU.
