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 57456 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.8 + 2.38 + 0.33) × $33.4009 ≈ $150.64. The same code in a facility setting pays about $89.18 because facility PE RVU (0.54) replaces office PE RVU.
