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 30320 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (4.52 + 8.4 + 0.65) × $33.4009 ≈ $453.25. The same code in a facility setting pays about $453.25 because facility PE RVU (8.4) replaces office PE RVU.
