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's PFS amount is built from three Relative Value Units (RVUs) — physician work, practice expense, and malpractice — assigned to the code. Each RVU component is adjusted by Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs) specific to the locality where the service is billed, reflecting local wage and cost variation. The adjusted RVUs are summed and multiplied by the annual Medicare conversion factor to produce the allowed amount. Non-facility and facility amounts can differ because practice-expense RVUs are typically higher in non-facility settings, where the billing provider bears more of the overhead cost.

RVUs — work 9.73, practice expense 7.87 (non-facility) / 7.87 (facility), malpractice 1.84 — × the locality GPCIs × the 2026 conversion factor of $33.40.

Good to know

  • This is an estimate only, not a guarantee of payment or coverage.
  • Medicare typically pays 80% of the allowed amount after the annual Part B deductible is met; the patient or secondary payer is responsible for the remainder.
  • Actual payment can vary by locality, applicable modifiers, claim-specific circumstances, sequestration reductions, and annual budget-neutrality adjustments.
  • Always verify current rates and local adjustments with your Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) before billing or appealing a denial.

Frequently asked

Why does the amount differ between non-facility and facility settings?

The practice-expense RVU component is generally higher in non-facility settings because the billing provider covers overhead costs like staff, equipment, and supplies that a facility would otherwise absorb.

Why might my locality's payment differ from the national amount shown?

Medicare applies Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs) to adjust for regional differences in wages, rent, and malpractice costs, so the same code can pay differently depending on where the service is billed.

Does this amount reflect what Medicare will actually pay?

No. This is an estimated allowed amount before the Part B deductible and the standard 80/20 coinsurance split are applied, and it does not account for modifiers or claim-specific adjustments.

Why wasn't the CPT code description shown on this page?
