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 G0087 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.8 + 1.15 + 0.14) × $33.4009 ≈ $103.21. The same code in a facility setting pays about $103.21 because facility PE RVU (1.15) replaces office PE RVU.
