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 28250 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (5.91 + 11.2 + 0.83) × $33.4009 ≈ $599.21. The same code in a facility setting pays about $386.78 because facility PE RVU (4.84) replaces office PE RVU.
