Maximum units per day (MUE)
Medicare’s Medically Unlikely Edit caps this code at 9 units per patient per day — Date of Service Edit: Clinical. 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 PFS amounts are built from three Relative Value Units (RVUs) assigned to a 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 performed, then the adjusted RVUs are summed and multiplied by the annual national conversion factor to produce a dollar amount. Non-facility (e.g., office) and facility (e.g., hospital) settings differ mainly in the practice-expense RVU, since overhead costs assumed by the practice differ depending on where the service is rendered. This is why the same code typically yields a higher non-facility amount than facility amount.
RVUs — work 1.4, practice expense 2.23 (non-facility) / 0.42 (facility), malpractice 0.21 — × 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 deductible; the patient or secondary insurer is responsible for the remainder.
- Actual payment can vary by locality, applied modifiers, claims adjustment (e.g., sequestration), and annual budget-neutrality adjustments.
- Always confirm current rates and applicable adjustments with your Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC).
Frequently asked
Why is the facility amount lower than the non-facility amount?
The facility amount assumes the hospital or facility absorbs certain overhead and equipment costs, so the practice-expense RVU used in the calculation is lower than when the same service is performed in a non-facility setting like a physician's office.
Will I be paid exactly the national amount shown?
No. The national amount uses a standard GPCI input, but actual payments are adjusted using the GPCIs specific to the locality where the service was furnished, so local amounts will differ from the national figure.
Does this amount include the patient's share?
No. The figure represents the total Medicare-allowed amount. Under Part B, Medicare generally pays 80% of this allowed amount after the deductible is met, with the remaining 20% being the patient's (or secondary payer's) responsibility.
Why might my MAC's payment differ from this estimate?
Payments can be affected by modifiers, multiple-procedure reductions, sequestration, bundling edits, and annual budget-neutrality adjustments applied by CMS, none of which are reflected in this baseline estimate.
