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 62331 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (4.25 + 1.03 + 0.38) × $33.4009 ≈ $189.05. The same code in a facility setting pays about $189.05 because facility PE RVU (1.03) replaces office PE RVU.
