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 44110 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (13.69 + 7 + 3.18) × $33.4009 ≈ $797.28. The same code in a facility setting pays about $797.28 because facility PE RVU (7) replaces office PE RVU.
