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 90901 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.41 + 0.81 + 0.01) × $33.4009 ≈ $41.08. The same code in a facility setting pays about $16.37 because facility PE RVU (0.07) replaces office PE RVU.
