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 25622 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (2.72 + 7.24 + 0.54) × $33.4009 ≈ $350.71. The same code in a facility setting pays about $295.93 because facility PE RVU (5.6) replaces office PE RVU.
