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 93650 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (9.98 + 2.55 + 2.35) × $33.4009 ≈ $497.01. The same code in a facility setting pays about $497.01 because facility PE RVU (2.55) replaces office PE RVU.
