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 25393 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (16.15 + 11.34 + 3.44) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,033.09. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,033.09 because facility PE RVU (11.34) replaces office PE RVU.
