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 27767 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (2.57 + 6.58 + 0.48) × $33.4009 ≈ $321.65. The same code in a facility setting pays about $300.61 because facility PE RVU (5.95) replaces office PE RVU.
