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 27095 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.46 + 8.07 + 0.22) × $33.4009 ≈ $325.66. The same code in a facility setting pays about $69.81 because facility PE RVU (0.41) replaces office PE RVU.
