† Critical Access Hospital: Medicare pays it ~101% of its own costs, so the figure shown is that cost-based benchmark, not a standard rate.

“Medicare pays” is the facility (technical) rate, matching the posted facility charge; the doctor's separate professional fee is excluded throughout. “—” means Medicare has no comparable facility rate for this code.
