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 46753 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (8.67 + 7.4 + 2.33) × $33.4009 ≈ $614.58. The same code in a facility setting pays about $614.58 because facility PE RVU (7.4) replaces office PE RVU.
