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 93573 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.27 + 0.48 + 0.08) × $33.4009 ≈ $61.12. The same code in a facility setting pays about $53.11 because facility PE RVU (0.24) replaces office PE RVU.
