Notes
Price information comes from the 2025 CMS Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners - by Provider and Service report. Prices reflect Medicare-approved amounts, not a personal bill estimate, hospital cash price, or private insurance rate.
This comparison uses the most common care setting. Other settings are excluded.
Only provider records with enough procedure volume are included. Facility options are listed separately when the source data contains direct facility billing records for the service.
A blue star marks providers whose procedure volume is in the top 25% of included providers on this page.
Prices reflect Medicare-approved amounts and may differ from what you personally pay.
Thresholds: at least 10 providers, at least 500 services, and a p75/p25 ratio of at least 1.25.
