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 43772 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (15.31 + 7.51 + 3.97) × $33.4009 ≈ $894.81. The same code in a facility setting pays about $894.81 because facility PE RVU (7.51) replaces office PE RVU.
