Florida Medicare physician rate (2026)

What the whole procedure costs
The office rate above is what an imaging center, lab or office is paid for the whole test. In a hospital, the facility bills its own fee and the physician bills only the reading. These are 2026 national Medicare amounts.
Medicare may pay the facility separately for this code or package it into another service on the same day, so treat the facility share as an upper bound. For a test like this the physician in a hospital bills only the reading (the professional component); outside a hospital one global fee covers the whole test, shown in the office rate above. Medicare allowed amounts are not what an uninsured patient is charged, and not a quote. Private plans typically allow more.
Your ZIP in Florida
Because Florida uses multiple localities, check your ZIP code specifically, whether you are in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, or the Panhandle.

What these numbers are
Every figure on this page is a 2026 Medicare allowed amount: the physician line comes from the Physician Fee Schedule adjusted by geographic practice-cost indices, and the facility totals come from the CMS hospital outpatient (OPPS) and ambulatory surgery center rates. None of them is a hospital chargemaster price, your insurer's contracted rate, or a quote. Anesthesia, pathology, imaging reads and follow-up care are billed under their own codes when they apply, and an inpatient stay is paid a different way again. In Florida the office and hospital physician lines for this CPT differ by $73.37.

Ultrasound Pelvis and how Florida is priced
Florida is split into a handful of Medicare payment localities rather than priced statewide: Miami carries its own high-cost locality, the Fort Lauderdale area is separately priced, and the remainder of the state, from Jacksonville to the Panhandle, shares rest-of-state pricing. That structure means South Florida procedures carry higher Medicare-approved amounts than identical care in Orlando, Tampa, or rural North Florida. The Miami locality in particular ranks among the more expensive in the eastern United States. For a state with this many Medicare beneficiaries, knowing which locality your ZIP falls in is genuinely useful.
Florida has the nation's most Medicare-driven health economy, and its markets are intensely competitive in the big retiree corridors along both coasts. South Florida is known for high utilization and a dense supply of specialists, while inland and Panhandle counties can be thin on subspecialty care. Seasonal residents should note that prices follow where care is delivered, so a winter procedure in Naples prices differently than one back home up north.
This procedure: A complete pelvic ultrasound scans the bladder, uterus, and ovaries through the lower abdomen using a probe on the skin, requiring a full bladder to push bowel out of the way and create a clear acoustic window. It evaluates pelvic pain, fibroids, and masses, and in males or by protocol it examines the bladder and surrounding structures. The exam takes 15 to 30 minutes; the full-bladder requirement is most patients' only complaint.
What Is Ultrasound Pelvis?
A complete pelvic ultrasound scans the bladder, uterus, and ovaries through the lower abdomen using a probe on the skin, requiring a full bladder to push bowel out of the way and create a clear acoustic window. It evaluates pelvic pain, fibroids, and masses, and in males or by protocol it examines the bladder and surrounding structures. The exam takes 15 to 30 minutes; the full-bladder requirement is most patients' only complaint.
What Affects the Cost
- –It is commonly paired with a transvaginal study (76830) in one appointment, producing two billed exams.
- –Hospital imaging departments price this study well above independent centers and office-based machines.
- –An inadequately filled bladder can force rebooking, effectively costing a second visit.
- –A limited pelvic ultrasound is a cheaper code when only one structure needs a follow-up look.
- –Separate professional reading fees apply where radiologists interpret off-site.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.Is a complete study needed, or is this a follow-up that qualifies for the cheaper limited code?
- 2.Will a transvaginal exam likely be added during the visit, and what would both together cost?
- 3.What are the bladder-filling instructions so I am not rebooked?
- 4.What is the price difference between your office, an imaging center, and the hospital?
- 5.What diagnosis is on the order to support coverage?

Yes. CMS splits Florida into 3 payment localities. For this CPT the office physician fee spans $8.61 from the lowest to highest locality. Because Florida uses multiple localities, check your ZIP code specifically, whether you are in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, or the Panhandle.
After the Part B deductible, coinsurance is usually 20% of the allowed amount: about $21 for the office physician line or $7 for the hospital physician line in Florida. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
It depends on where the test is done. At an independent imaging center, lab or office, $107.06 is Medicare's full rate in Florida, covering the test and the reading. In a hospital outpatient department the physician is paid only for the reading (about $33.69) and the hospital is paid separately, which brings the national total to up to about $139. Florida ranks #38 of 51 states on the non-hospital rate (within 2% of the national office rate of $105.21).
