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 24305 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (7.43 + 7.35 + 1.41) × $33.4009 ≈ $540.76. The same code in a facility setting pays about $540.76 because facility PE RVU (7.35) replaces office PE RVU.
