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 93455 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (5.16 + 23.08 + 1.08) × $33.4009 ≈ $979.31. The same code in a facility setting pays about $979.31 because facility PE RVU (23.08) replaces office PE RVU.
