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 61892 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (14.63 + 12.03 + 6.16) × $33.4009 ≈ $1,096.22. The same code in a facility setting pays about $1,096.22 because facility PE RVU (12.03) replaces office PE RVU.
