Your ZIP in Maryland
A ZIP lookup matters in Maryland because three different locality treatments are in play: check whether you fall in the Baltimore area, the DC suburbs like Bethesda and Silver Spring, or rest-of-state regions like Frederick, Hagerstown, and the Eastern Shore.

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 centre 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.

| baltimore/surr. cntys | $134.34 |

PE GPCI ranges from 1.012 to 1.073 in Maryland. That index is why the same CPT is not one price statewide.
Screening Mammogram and how Maryland is priced
Maryland's Medicare physician pricing is split geographically: Baltimore and its surrounding counties form one locality, the rest of the state another, and, unusually, the Washington suburbs including Montgomery and Prince George's counties are priced inside the District of Columbia's high-cost locality rather than either Maryland one. That three-way carve means a Rockville procedure is approved at DC-area rates while an identical one in Frederick or Salisbury is not. Baltimore-area adjustments sit above rest-of-state levels but below the DC locality. Few states have their pricing shaped this much by a neighboring jurisdiction.
Maryland is also the only state with an all-payer rate-setting system for hospital services, so hospital-side billing works differently here than anywhere else in the country, though physician fees still follow the standard Medicare schedule. Baltimore's academic medical centers rank among the most prominent in the world and draw patients globally. The Eastern Shore and western Maryland are far more rural, with patients often traveling to Baltimore, Annapolis, or across state lines.
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?
