Understanding This Medical Fee

Gross Charge vs Negotiated Payment: The median physician charge for this service is $67.00. However, insured patients almost never pay this full amount directly. Insurers negotiate rates down toward the $21.13 baseline.

Self-Pay & Uninsured Guidance: If you are paying without insurance or out-of-network, request a prompt-pay cash discount. Most medical practices are willing to settle self-pay bills near the customary baseline rate rather than the full gross charge.
