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 G9483 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (1.42 + 0 + 0.16) × $33.4009 ≈ $52.77. The same code in a facility setting pays about $52.77 because facility PE RVU (0) replaces office PE RVU.
