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 24075 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (4.13 + 12.02 + 0.9) × $33.4009 ≈ $569.49. The same code in a facility setting pays about $320.65 because facility PE RVU (4.57) replaces office PE RVU.
