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 Kansas the office and hospital physician lines for this CPT differ by $82.30.

Screening Mammogram and how Kansas is priced
A single locality covers all of Kansas, with geographic indices in the lower national tier, so the published Medicare rates apply evenly from the Kansas City suburbs to the far western High Plains. Notably, the Kansas side of the Kansas City metro prices under the statewide Kansas locality while the Missouri side has its own metro locality, meaning the two halves of one city carry different approved amounts. Beyond that quirk, Kansas pricing is straightforwardly uniform. Wichita, Topeka, and rural Kansas all share the same adjustments.
The Kansas City metro and Wichita hold most of the state's specialists, with the academic medical center on the Kansas side of the metro serving as the top referral point. Western Kansas is genuinely frontier in places, with long distances to any hospital that performs advanced procedures, and some High Plains residents cross into Colorado or Nebraska for care. Critical access hospitals carry much of the rural load.
This procedure: A screening bilateral mammogram is the routine X-ray check of both breasts in women with no symptoms, looking for cancers too small to feel. A technologist takes two standard views of each breast with brief compression; the visit takes about 20 minutes, and a radiologist reads the images afterward, with results sent within days. It is the test guidelines recommend at regular intervals starting in a woman's 40s.

What Affects the Cost
- –The screening itself is free under ACA preventive rules at in-network facilities, so out-of-pocket cost usually arises only from what follows.
- –3D tomosynthesis screening is an add-on code; most plans and Medicare now cover it as part of screening, but a few still pass its cost to patients.
- –Callbacks for additional views are billed as diagnostic mammography with normal cost sharing, and roughly one in ten screenings generates a callback.
- –Out-of-network facilities are not bound by the zero-cost-share screening rule.
- –Dense-breast supplemental imaging, like ultrasound or MRI, is billed separately and often with cost sharing.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.Is this facility in network so my screening is fully free?
- 2.Is 3D tomosynthesis included at no charge under my plan?
- 3.If I get called back for more views, what will that diagnostic visit cost me?
- 4.Am I inside my plan's allowed screening interval so the claim will not be denied for timing?
- 5.If I have dense breasts, what supplemental imaging might be recommended and does my plan cover it?

Not on the physician fee schedule. Kansas uses one locality, so the Medicare physician rate is the same from one end of the state to the other. What still changes is site of service (office vs hospital) and any facility fee the hospital bills on its own claim.
After the Part B deductible, coinsurance is usually 20% of the allowed amount: about $23 for the office physician line or $7 for the hospital physician line in Kansas. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
At an imaging center or office, $115.84 is Medicare's full rate in Kansas, covering the test and the reading. In a hospital, the physician bills only the reading (about $33.54) and the hospital bills separately for the test. Kansas ranks #7 of 51 states on this rate (8% below the national office rate of $126.26).
