Doctor’s fee or facility fee? These are single prices the insurer publishes for both the doctor's and the facility's part of the service.
Who is counted: Quartz lists clinicians individually: 94% of the 32,724 provider IDs (NPIs) it names are individual doctors, nurse practitioners and therapists; the rest are practices, clinics and hospitals. “Providers” counts those IDs. Quartz’s files name 26,766 providers for this procedure; 2,383 are counted here: the clinicians whose specialty performs it — mostly Family Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynecology and Clinic/Center — 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 in these files: Maternity care is often contracted as a case rate or a bundle outside the fee schedule — under a per-case or AP-DRG code set this site does not read (it reads CPT, HCPCS and MS-DRG). A hospital system paid that way is missing here, and such systems can be among the most expensive in a market.
Not on this map: Care outside Quartz's area: for some plans, Quartz rents Cigna's national PPO network. Those prices are Cigna's, and they are in this site's Cigna section, not here. Care outside Quartz's area through MultiPlan: for some plans, Quartz also rents the national MultiPlan (PHCS) network. Its prices are MultiPlan's, set nationwide, so they are not included here.

vs Medicare
“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. The prices on this map include a facility fee, which Medicare pays separately and which is not in its physician price, so the ratio here runs high and is a rough guide only.
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.
