Maximum units per day (MUE)

Medicare’s Medically Unlikely Edit caps this code at 1 unit per patient per day — Date of Service Edit: Policy. Units above the MUE are denied; some MUEs can be exceeded only with appropriate documentation and modifiers where policy allows.

How the amount is calculated

Medicare pricing starts with three Relative Value Units (RVUs) assigned to the code: physician work, practice expense, and malpractice. Each RVU component is adjusted by Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs) specific to the locality where the service is furnished, reflecting local cost differences. The adjusted RVUs are summed and multiplied by the annual Medicare conversion factor to produce the allowed amount. Practice-expense RVUs differ between non-facility and facility settings because overhead costs (equipment, supplies, staff time) are treated differently depending on where the service is performed.

RVUs — work 3.41, practice expense 7.88 (non-facility) / 2.48 (facility), malpractice 0.4 — × the locality GPCIs × the 2026 conversion factor of $33.40.

Good to know

  • This is an estimate only, not a guarantee of payment.
  • Medicare typically pays 80% of the allowed amount after the patient meets their Part B deductible; the patient or secondary insurer is responsible for the remainder.
  • Actual payment can vary based on modifiers, place-of-service codes, sequestration reductions, and annual budget-neutrality adjustments.
  • Always verify final allowed amounts and coverage with your local Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC).

Frequently asked

Why is the non-facility amount higher than the facility amount for this code?

In non-facility settings, the practice absorbs overhead costs like equipment, supplies, and staff time, so the practice-expense RVU is higher. In facility settings, the facility itself bills separately for overhead, so the physician's practice-expense RVU is lower, reducing the allowed amount.

Does this amount reflect what the patient will owe?

No. The figures shown are Medicare's allowed amount. Patient responsibility depends on deductible status, any applicable coinsurance (typically 20%), and secondary coverage.

Will this amount change during the year?

The conversion factor and RVUs are typically set annually, but mid-year changes, sequestration, or correction notices from CMS can affect the final paid amount.

Why might my MAC pay a different amount than shown here?

Locality GPCIs, applied modifiers, contractual adjustments, and local coverage determinations can all cause the actual paid amount to differ from this estimate.
