Prices shown: in-person office visits only
Doctor’s fee or facility fee? These are doctors' fees for a visit in their own office. An independent practice usually charges nothing more, but a clinic owned by a hospital may add a separate facility fee — worth asking before you book.
Who is counted: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City lists clinicians individually: 100% of the 19,392 provider IDs (NPIs) it names are individual doctors, nurse practitioners and therapists; the rest are practices, clinics and hospitals. “Providers” counts those IDs.
Not on this map: Care outside its home state: Blue Cross Blue Shield plans share one national network, BlueCard, for members treated in other states. Those prices are published centrally, not by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City, so they are not included here. Hospital stays: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City's files price whole hospital stays for only a handful of hospitals, so its hospital-stay maps show very few places.
