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 26756 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (4.47 + 7.08 + 0.87) × $33.4009 ≈ $414.84. The same code in a facility setting pays about $414.84 because facility PE RVU (7.08) replaces office PE RVU.
