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) 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 performed, reflecting regional 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 (e.g., office) and facility (e.g., hospital) settings because overhead costs differ, which is why this code may show two different amounts depending on place of service.
RVUs — work 26.81, practice expense 14.88 (non-facility) / 14.88 (facility), malpractice 5.36 — × 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 the annual Part B deductible; the beneficiary or secondary insurer is responsible for the remainder.
- Actual payment can vary based on modifiers, multiple-procedure reductions, sequestration, and annual budget-neutrality adjustments.
- Locality-adjusted amounts depend on the GPCI values in effect for the specific Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) jurisdiction.
- Always confirm the current allowed amount and any applicable edits or modifiers with your MAC before billing.
Frequently asked
Why does the facility amount differ from the non-facility amount?
The two settings use different practice-expense RVUs because Medicare assumes the facility (e.g., hospital) absorbs certain overhead costs that a non-facility (e.g., physician office) would otherwise bear directly.
Does this amount include sequestration or other automatic reductions?
No. The figures shown reflect the standard PFS calculation before mandatory federal payment reductions like sequestration, which are applied separately at the claims-processing level.
Why might my MAC's actual payment differ from the amount shown here?
Locality GPCIs, contractor pricing, modifiers, and annual Medicare updates can all cause the final paid amount to differ slightly from a generic PFS calculation.
Can I use this figure to predict patient cost-sharing?
It can serve as a starting estimate, but the patient's actual responsibility depends on deductible status, secondary coverage, and any applicable modifiers or reductions.
