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. These Oklahoma averages are unweighted means of the state’s localities, not population-weighted.
How Medicare prices Oklahoma
Oklahoma is priced as one statewide locality with geographic indices in the low national tier, so Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and the rural southwest share a single set of Medicare-approved amounts. The state's two big metros hold most of its providers, but neither carries a separate locality premium. Low practice-cost indices keep Oklahoma's published rates among the more affordable in the fee schedule. What patients pay hinges mainly on care setting and insurance status rather than where in the state they live.
Oklahoma City and Tulsa split the state's specialty care between them, each with academic-affiliated medical centers and competing regional systems. Rural Oklahoma has struggled with hospital closures and physician recruitment, leaving long drives in the Panhandle and the southeast. Tribal health systems are a significant part of the care landscape, operating some of the larger rural facilities in the state.

Oklahoma is one Medicare locality, so the physician fee schedule is statewide. Site of service (office vs hospital) and hospital facility fees still change what a patient is billed.
Medicare physician allowed amounts only — the professional fee after GPCI. They do not include hospital facility charges, anesthesia, or your plan’s contracted rate. Medicare patients typically owe 20% of the allowed amount after the Part B deductible, before Medigap.
