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 95983 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.91 + 0.56 + 0.08) × $33.4009 ≈ $51.77. The same code in a facility setting pays about $42.09 because facility PE RVU (0.27) replaces office PE RVU.
