Medicare payment for 0902T (CY2026)

Medically Unlikely Edit (MUE)
Medicare caps 0902T at 1 unit per date of service for practitioner claims (MAI 2 - date of service edit (absolute): units above the MUE never pay), rationale: Code Descriptor / CPT Instruction. Units above the cap are denied unless the edit's adjudication rules allow an appeal with documentation.
