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 50328 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (3.41 + 0.82 + 0.86) × $33.4009 ≈ $170.01. The same code in a facility setting pays about $170.01 because facility PE RVU (0.82) replaces office PE RVU.
