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. Where a state has both, the table and each state’s popup show the doctor’s fee and the facility fee side by side; their sum is a rough total for the visit, before anything else done during it.
Who is counted: UMR lists clinicians individually: 89% of the 2,027,240 provider IDs (NPIs) it names are individual doctors, nurse practitioners and therapists; the rest are practices, clinics and hospitals. “Providers” counts those IDs. UMR’s files name 1,573,559 providers for this procedure; 724,701 are counted here: the clinicians whose specialty performs it — mostly Nurse Practitioner, Physician Assistant 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: Prices found in only some copies of a network: these files repeat themselves heavily, so each group of nearly identical files was read once, through one of its files. Checks on the largest groups found their files share 98-100% of their prices; the rest, typically 1-2%, is not shown. Which employer: UMR's files are published employer by employer, but this site shows prices by network and state only, so no employer is named here.

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.
