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 99214 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.92 + 2 + 0.14) × $33.4009 ≈ $135.61. The same code in a facility setting pays about $84.5 because facility PE RVU (0.47) replaces office PE RVU.
