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 64776 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (5.46 + 4.84 + 0.91) × $33.4009 ≈ $374.42. The same code in a facility setting pays about $374.42 because facility PE RVU (4.84) replaces office PE RVU.
