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 59070 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (5.11 + 5.34 + 1.63) × $33.4009 ≈ $403.48. The same code in a facility setting pays about $275.56 because facility PE RVU (1.51) replaces office PE RVU.
