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 20702 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (2.44 + 1.5 + 0.49) × $33.4009 ≈ $147.97. The same code in a facility setting pays about $122.92 because facility PE RVU (0.75) replaces office PE RVU.
