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 63076 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (3.94 + 1.3 + 1.26) × $33.4009 ≈ $217.11. The same code in a facility setting pays about $217.11 because facility PE RVU (1.3) replaces office PE RVU.
