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 37241 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (8.53 + 121.73 + 1.27) × $33.4009 ≈ $4,393.22. The same code in a facility setting pays about $371.08 because facility PE RVU (1.31) replaces office PE RVU.
