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 performed, then the adjusted RVUs are summed and multiplied by the annual Medicare conversion factor to produce a dollar amount. Non-facility (e.g., office) and facility (e.g., hospital) settings often use different practice-expense RVUs, since the resources a practice must supply differ between the two settings. For CPT 23105, the practice-expense RVU is the same in both settings, so the resulting non-facility and facility allowed amounts are equal.
RVUs — work 8.27, practice expense 8.13 (non-facility) / 8.13 (facility), malpractice 1.72 — × the locality GPCIs × the 2026 conversion factor of $33.40.
Good to know
- This is an estimate only, based on national RVUs, GPCIs, and the current conversion factor — actual payment may differ.
- Medicare typically pays 80% of the allowed amount after the patient meets their deductible; the beneficiary or secondary payer is responsible for the rest.
- Modifiers, multiple-procedure reductions, sequestration, and annual budget-neutrality adjustments can change the final paid amount.
- Always verify current rates and local adjustments with your Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) before billing or appealing a claim.
Frequently asked
Why does the allowed amount differ by locality for the same CPT code?
Medicare applies Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs) to the work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs to reflect regional differences in costs of living and practice. This causes the same code to have different allowed amounts in different localities.
Why are the non-facility and facility amounts the same for CPT 23105?
The practice-expense RVU used in the fee formula is identical for both settings for this code, so the calculated allowed amount does not change between non-facility and facility locations.
Does this amount represent what Medicare will actually pay?
No. It is an estimated allowed amount before patient cost-sharing. Medicare generally pays 80% after the deductible, and the actual payment can be affected by modifiers, sequestration, and other adjustments.
Where can I confirm the exact reimbursement for my claim?
Your Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) publishes locality-specific fee schedules and can confirm the exact allowed and paid amounts for a given claim.
