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 65775 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (6.74 + 7.67 + 0.53) × $33.4009 ≈ $499.01. The same code in a facility setting pays about $499.01 because facility PE RVU (7.67) replaces office PE RVU.
