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 24370 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (22.96 + 13.65 + 4.61) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,376.79. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,376.79 because facility PE RVU (13.65) replaces office PE RVU.
