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 99427 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.71 + 0.86 + 0.05) × $33.4009 ≈ $54.11. The same code in a facility setting pays about $31.4 because facility PE RVU (0.18) replaces office PE RVU.
