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.
National vs New Mexico
Where New Mexico ranks for this CPT
Screening Mammogram and how New Mexico is priced
A single statewide locality covers New Mexico, with geographic indices below the national average, so Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and the most remote high-desert communities share one set of Medicare-approved amounts. The state benefits from the floor CMS applies to the physician work index, which lifts low-cost states toward parity. Uniform pricing across a state this large and sparse means the fee schedule is the easy part; finding a provider is often the harder one. Las Cruces and the border region price identically to the Albuquerque metro.
Albuquerque holds the state's academic medical center and most of its specialists, and for many New Mexicans it is the only in-state option for advanced procedures. The Indian Health Service and tribal facilities are central to care across large parts of the state. Residents of the southeast often use Texas providers in Lubbock or El Paso, and northern communities sometimes look to Colorado.
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?

Screening Mammogram in New Mexico: questions
New Mexico is a single Medicare locality for this fee schedule. The 2026 physician rate for CPT 77067 is $118.30 in an office and $118.30 in a hospital, statewide. A ZIP lookup still confirms the locality mapping.
Not on the physician fee schedule. New Mexico 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 $24 for the office physician line or $24 for the hospital physician line in New Mexico. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
No. $118.30 is the Medicare physician allowed amount for CPT 77067. Anesthesia, facility fees, implants, and other CPT codes billed the same day are extra. New Mexico ranks #16 of 51 states on this physician line (6% below the national office rate of $126.26).
