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 47541 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (6.58 + 27.98 + 0.85) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,182.73. The same code in a facility setting pays about $293.59 because facility PE RVU (1.36) replaces office PE RVU.
