Maximum units per day (MUE)
Medicare’s Medically Unlikely Edit caps this code at 1 unit 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's allowed amount is built from three Relative Value Units (RVUs) — physician work, practice expense, and malpractice — each adjusted by the Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs) for the specific locality where the service is performed. These locality-adjusted RVUs are summed and multiplied by the annual Conversion Factor set by CMS to produce the dollar amount. Practice-expense RVUs often differ between non-facility (e.g., office) and facility (e.g., hospital) settings because overhead costs differ, which is why the two amounts can diverge. The resulting figure is the Medicare-allowed amount before any adjustments for deductible, coinsurance, or sequestration.
RVUs — work 8.19, practice expense 8.05 (non-facility) / 8.05 (facility), malpractice 1.74 — × 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's deductible is met; the beneficiary or secondary payer is responsible for the remainder.
- Modifiers, multiple-procedure reductions, sequestration, and annual budget-neutrality adjustments can change the actual paid amount.
- Rates vary by locality due to GPCI adjustments; confirm exact figures with your Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC).
- CPT code descriptors are proprietary to the AMA and are not reproduced here.
Frequently asked
Why is the facility amount different from the non-facility amount?
The two settings can have different practice-expense RVUs because overhead (staff, supplies, equipment) is handled differently when a service is performed in a facility versus a physician's office.
Does this amount reflect what the practice will actually collect?
No. It reflects the Medicare-allowed amount before patient cost-sharing, secondary payer contributions, deductible status, modifiers, and any sequestration reduction are applied.
Why do amounts change year to year?
CMS updates RVUs, GPCIs, and the conversion factor annually, and applies budget-neutrality adjustments, which can raise or lower the allowed amount even if the code itself doesn't change.
Where can I verify the exact rate for my location?
Your Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) publishes the finalized locality-specific fee schedule, which should be used for authoritative billing decisions.
