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 77076 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.68 + 2.4 + 0.06) × $33.4009 ≈ $104.88. The same code in a facility setting pays about $104.88 because facility PE RVU (2.4) replaces office PE RVU.
