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 69667 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (9.65 + 10.58 + 1.44) × $33.4009 ≈ $723.8. The same code in a facility setting pays about $723.8 because facility PE RVU (10.58) replaces office PE RVU.
