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 67801 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.86 + 2.93 + 0.15) × $33.4009 ≈ $165. The same code in a facility setting pays about $110.22 because facility PE RVU (1.29) replaces office PE RVU.
