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 92072 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.92 + 1.67 + 0.01) × $33.4009 ≈ $120.24. The same code in a facility setting pays about $76.49 because facility PE RVU (0.36) replaces office PE RVU.
