Import a GPCI Comma Delimited Flat File
You can import a comma delimited flat file to add GPCI values to an existing GPCI library. Make sure your comma delimited flat file meets the following criteria: Carrier and Locality must be merged into one column. For example, New Orleans, LA has a Carrier of 528 and Locality of 01. The two values would be combined in one column to become 52801. There are five columns and the data in each row must be in the following order: Carrier/Locality, Description, GPCI Work, GPCI PE, and GPCI PLI. Commas must be removed. For example, NEW ORLEANS, LA would become NEW ORLEANS LA. The column headings must be removed. Select Libraries > GPCI to open the GPCI Library List. Select the name of the library to import the values into. Note: If the library already contains GCPI values, new imported values are appended after the existing ones. However, if an imported carrier or locality is the same as an existing one but its value is different, the value is replaced with the imported one. Select open menu

GPCI Codes Library
You can use Geographic Practice Cost Index (GPCI) codes to adjust payment rates to account for differences in the price of doing business in different localities. GPCIs are locality-specific – there are 91 areas in the United States, and 34 of the areas are statewide. The RVU for a component is multiplied by the GPCI value for the same component to calculate the adjusted fee schedule payment amount for a specific locality. The three GPCI components are based on geographic location and are: Work component Practice Expense component Practice Liability (malpractice) component The adjusted fee calculations are: Non-Facility Fee Payment Formula: [(Work RVU x Work GPCI) + (Non-Facility RVU x PE GPCI) + (Malpractice RVU x PLI GPCI)] x Conversion Factor Facility Fee Payment Formula: [(Work RVU x Work GPCI) + (Facility RVU x PE GPCI) + (Malpractice RVU x PLI GPCI)] x Conversion Factor The codes in the GPCI Library are used in the: Contracts Library for the Contract Global Update to calculate ne
