Common questions Copy link

Why is there no payment amount for 1006F?

Its status indicator is M (measurement code). This code exists for reporting purposes only. The blank is deliberate: the amount is either unknown or paid under another provision, so reading it as $0 would be wrong.

Why would a Medicare claim for 1006F be denied or paid less?

These come from CMS indicators on this page, not general billing advice.

  • Its status indicator is M (measurement code) — This code exists for reporting purposes only. See status indicators

Payer-specific coverage and documentation rules live outside these files, so a claim that clears every check here can still be denied on other grounds.

When does this rate change?

CMS publishes a fee schedule release every quarter (January, April, July, October), and each is versioned here. See what changed each release, or get an email when a new release moves rates.

Modifiers that report work outside 1006F's global period
Modifier Reports
-25 A significant, separately identifiable E/M on the same day as the procedure, beyond its usual pre- and post-operative care.

A modifier reports what happened; it does not by itself make a service payable. Documentation has to support it.

This is computed from CMS's Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Q4 2021 release (schedule pfs, effective October 2021). National amounts apply a GPCI of 1.000 and leave sequestration off. The status indicator decides payability, never the RVU values, so a blank RVU stays blank. Releases are immutable: a rate retrieved for a past quarter always reflects that release. Our methodology covers the depth: sourcing, parsing, versioning, and how we cross-check claims before they ship.
