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 56633 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (19.13 + 11.13 + 4.19) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,150.66. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,150.66 because facility PE RVU (11.13) replaces office PE RVU.
