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 51925 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (17.09 + 8.22 + 3) × $33.4009 ≈ $945.58. The same code in a facility setting pays about $945.58 because facility PE RVU (8.22) replaces office PE RVU.
