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 45130 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (18.04 + 8.8 + 3.24) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,004.7. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,004.7 because facility PE RVU (8.8) replaces office PE RVU.
