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 47570 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (12.25 + 6.52 + 3.27) × $33.4009 ≈ $736.16. The same code in a facility setting pays about $736.16 because facility PE RVU (6.52) replaces office PE RVU.
