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 35363 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (31.54 + 4.58 + 8.07) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,475.99. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,475.99 because facility PE RVU (4.58) replaces office PE RVU.
