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 58260 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (13.8 + 6.01 + 2.4) × $33.4009 ≈ $741.83. The same code in a facility setting pays about $741.83 because facility PE RVU (6.01) replaces office PE RVU.
