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 27814 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (10.35 + 9 + 2.04) × $33.4009 ≈ $714.45. The same code in a facility setting pays about $714.45 because facility PE RVU (9) replaces office PE RVU.
