How to read this table

The Medicare amount is a national figure from the October 2026 CMS files: for codes on the physician fee schedule it is the non-facility payment at the 2026 conversion factor, for DMEPOS items the national ceiling or, where competitive bidding sets the fees, the highest non-rural state fee, and for laboratory, hospital outpatient and ASC codes the published rate. Each code page shows the full breakdown, every modifier row and the state range. MUE is the Medically Unlikely Edit for the setting that bills the code, named in brackets: the DME supplier MUE for items on the DMEPOS fee schedule, the hospital outpatient MUE for codes with an OPPS payment rate but no national physician fee schedule amount, and the practitioner MUE otherwise; when that setting has no MUE, the next published one is shown. OPPS SI is the status indicator from Addendum B, which tells a hospital whether the code is paid separately, packaged, not payable under the outpatient system or, for status A, paid under another fee schedule or payment system. “None in these files” means none of the physician fee schedule, DMEPOS, lab, OPPS or ASC files lists a national amount; the code page says which payment rules apply. A dash means CMS publishes no value for that code in that file.

Where QuickIntell fits for V codes

QuickCode supports qualified coder review of units, modifiers and NCCI pairs before the claim leaves, and QuickAuth coordinates requirement checks and documentation for items and services that a coverage policy governs, each with human review.

Frequently asked questions

How many V codes are there?

The October 2026 HCPCS Level II file has 208 active codes in this hub. 101 of them carry a national Medicare amount in a 2026 fee schedule or OPPS/ASC addendum; the highest is V2627 at $2,103.31 (DMEPOS ceiling).

Are V codes CPT codes?

No. They are HCPCS Level II codes, a letter followed by four digits, maintained by CMS; CPT codes are five-character codes maintained by the AMA. Both are reported in the same procedure-code field on Medicare claims.

How often do V codes change?

CMS updates the HCPCS Level II file every quarter (January, April, July and October) and publishes the fee schedules, MUE and NCCI tables on the same quarterly cycle; this hub is rebuilt from each release.
