Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Impact Tool now available

November 9, 2022

ASTRO developed a tool to analyze the impact of the 2023 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) final rule’s code-level impact locality. The MPFS payment amount for a code is determined using work, practice expense, and malpractice relative value units (RVUs). These RVUs are adjusted by a geographic practice cost index (GPCI), which accounts for geographic variation in the costs of practicing medicine in different parts of the country. ASTRO’s final rule tool automatically calculates a code’s payment amount based on the locality selected, allowing members to quickly see what the final rule means for their practices. Download the tool for more information.
