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 57460 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (2.76 + 6.01 + 0.48) × $33.4009 ≈ $308.96. The same code in a facility setting pays about $141.62 because facility PE RVU (1) replaces office PE RVU.
