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 37254 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (7.3 + 53.04 + 1.71) × $33.4009 ≈ $2,072.53. The same code in a facility setting pays about $335.68 because facility PE RVU (1.04) replaces office PE RVU.
