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 67921 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (3.38 + 10.65 + 0.26) × $33.4009 ≈ $477.3. The same code in a facility setting pays about $276.56 because facility PE RVU (4.64) replaces office PE RVU.
