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 37760 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (10.51 + 2.66 + 2.68) × $33.4009 ≈ $529.4. The same code in a facility setting pays about $529.4 because facility PE RVU (2.66) replaces office PE RVU.
