One lucky golfer won a free Deluxe version of QuickPractice. Its just another way of saying thank you to all the providers that made QuickPractice a national success.

Are You Charging the Correct Fee?

Provided by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid

By clicking on the link below you can search information on services covered by the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS). It provides more than 10,000 physician services, the associated relative value units, a fee schedule status indicator, and various payment policy indicators needed for payment adjustment (i.e., payment of assistant at surgery, team surgery, bilateral surgery, etc.).

The Medicare physician fee schedule pricing amounts are adjusted to reflect the variation in practice costs from area to area. A geographic practice cost index (GPCI) has been established for every Medicare payment locality for each of the three components of a procedure's relative value unit (i.e., the RVUs for work, practice expense, and malpractice). The GPCIs are applied in the calculation of a fee schedule payment amount by multiplying the RVU for each component times the GPCI for that component.

The site is designed to take you through the selection steps prior to the display of the information.
The site allows you to:
• search pricing amounts, various payment policy indicators, RVUs, and GPCIs by a single procedure code, a range and a list of procedure codes.
• search for the nation, a specific carrier, or a specific carrier locality. Each page has associated Help/Hint available to complete your selections
