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 31380 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (24.93 + 22.44 + 3.63) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,703.45. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,703.45 because facility PE RVU (22.44) replaces office PE RVU.
