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 31584 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (17.14 + 18.28 + 2.5) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,266.56. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,266.56 because facility PE RVU (18.28) replaces office PE RVU.
