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 74440 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.37 + 2.63 + 0.02) × $33.4009 ≈ $100.87. The same code in a facility setting pays about $100.87 because facility PE RVU (2.63) replaces office PE RVU.
