Payers shown: Florida Blue
Prices shown: hospital inpatient care
Doctor’s fee or facility fee? These are doctors' (professional) fees only. If this is done in a hospital or surgery center, the facility bills its own fee on top — for the room, nurses and equipment — often larger than the doctor's. That fee is not included here.
Who is counted: Florida Blue mostly lists practices, not individual clinicians: 70% of the 8,112 provider IDs (NPIs) it names belong to a practice, clinic or hospital, which stands for everyone who works there. So “providers” here mostly counts practices — one entry can cover many doctors — and is not comparable with insurers that list each clinician. Florida Blue’s files name 4,766 providers for this procedure; 1,648 are counted here: the clinicians whose specialty performs it — mostly Durable Medical Equipment & Medical Supplies, Nurse Practitioner and Internal Medicine — and the practices, clinics and hospitals. Insurers attach their whole fee schedule to every contracted provider, so the rest are clinicians listed at a price for something they never do; counting them would inflate the provider count and pull the typical price towards the fee schedule’s floor.
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 Florida Blue, so they are not included here.

“x Medicare” compares each price with what original Medicare pays a doctor for the same service in the same state under its physician fee schedule (RVU26D, in force from 2026-10-01) — the lower price a doctor is paid when a hospital or surgery center provides the room and equipment. Insurers write their contracts as a share of Medicare, so 1.3x means the insurer pays 30% more than Medicare would; Medicare Advantage plans generally pay close to 1.0x.
This is a statewide summary. Prices vary far more between towns and between practices than these medians suggest; zip-code and provider-level detail is not published here; this specific data can be requested here.
