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 64902 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (11.51 + 3.67 + 2.46) × $33.4009 ≈ $589.19. The same code in a facility setting pays about $589.19 because facility PE RVU (3.67) replaces office PE RVU.
