Payers shown: UnitedHealthcare
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: UnitedHealthcare lists clinicians individually: 89% of the 2,030,154 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: 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. UMR: plans that UnitedHealthcare's administrator UMR runs for self-funded employers are published by UMR and shown on UMR's own page. Hospital stays: UnitedHealthcare's files price whole hospital stays for only a handful of hospitals, so its hospital-stay maps show very few places.

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.
