Geographic pricing cost index
text:
Geographic Practice Cost Index is used along with Relative Value Units by Medicare to determine allowable payment amounts for medical procedures. There are multiple GPCIs: Cost of Living, Malpractice, and Practice Cost/Expense. These categories allow Medicare to adjust reimbursement rates to take into account regional and practice-specific factors. An example calculation for a Medicare allowed amount is: 2009 Non-Facility Pricing Amount = [(Work RVU * Work GPCI) + +] * Conversion Factor (CF)
