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 69726 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (6.2 + 5.54 + 0.91) × $33.4009 ≈ $422.52. The same code in a facility setting pays about $422.52 because facility PE RVU (5.54) replaces office PE RVU.
