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 37246 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (6.83 + 44.12 + 1.34) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,746.53. The same code in a facility setting pays about $308.29 because facility PE RVU (1.06) replaces office PE RVU.
