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 64802 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (10.11 + 11.95 + 4.26) × $33.4009 ≈ $879.11. The same code in a facility setting pays about $879.11 because facility PE RVU (11.95) replaces office PE RVU.
