What it costs in a hospital or surgery center
In a doctor’s office, the office rate above is the whole Medicare payment. When the same procedure is done in a hospital or surgery center, the facility bills its own fee on top of the physician, which is what these totals show. They 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. Medicare allowed amounts are not what an uninsured patient is charged, and not a quote. Private plans typically allow more.

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 Wisconsin the office and hospital physician lines for this CPT differ by $40.95.

Psychiatric Evaluation With Medical Services and how Wisconsin is priced
Wisconsin's Medicare pricing runs through a single statewide locality with indices near the national average, so Milwaukee, Madison, and the Northwoods share the same approved amounts. The unified locality sits atop one of the more regionally organized care systems in the country, with strong integrated groups serving defined territories. No metro premium exists in the fee schedule, so Milwaukee's higher practice costs are averaged into the statewide factors. The published rates here travel unchanged across all seventy-two counties.
Milwaukee and Madison hold the state's academic medicine and largest systems, while integrated clinics in Marshfield, La Crosse, and the Fox Valley have long histories of serving rural Wisconsin through hub-and-spoke networks. The far north is lake and forest country where specialty care means a long drive south, and some western residents use Twin Cities or Rochester, Minnesota providers. Wisconsin's tradition of clinic-based integrated care tends to keep billing relatively coordinated.
This procedure: This is the psychiatric diagnostic evaluation performed by a medical provider, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner, that includes medical services: reviewing your health history and medications, considering physical causes of symptoms, and usually prescribing or adjusting psychiatric medication. It typically lasts 45 to 90 minutes as the intake for medication management. Follow-up prescribing visits are then shorter and billed under different codes.
What Is Psychiatric Evaluation With Medical Services?

What Affects the Cost
- –Psychiatrists are among the least likely of all physicians to accept insurance, so cash-pay intake fees are common and vary widely by market.
- –This medical evaluation code pays more than the non-medical 90791, and clinician list prices reflect that.
- –Any labs ordered at intake, such as thyroid or metabolic panels before starting medication, are billed separately by the lab.
- –Follow-up medication visits recur monthly or quarterly indefinitely, so the ongoing cadence matters more than the intake price.
- –Private-pay concierge psychiatry practices bundle intakes and follow-ups into membership pricing outside insurance entirely.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.Do you take my insurance, and what are your cash rates for the intake and for follow-ups?
- 2.How often will I need follow-up visits, and how are those billed?
- 3.Will you order baseline labs, and where should I have them drawn to stay in network?
- 4.If therapy is recommended alongside medication, do you provide it or refer out?
- 5.Can I request a network-gap exception if no in-network prescriber is available in a reasonable time?

Psychiatric Evaluation With Medical Services in Wisconsin: questions
Under 2026 Medicare rates, a psychiatric evaluation with medical services in a doctor's office costs about $196 in Wisconsin, with no separate facility fee. In a facility the national total is up to about $341 at a hospital outpatient department, because the facility is paid its own rate on top of the physician. Wisconsin is a single Medicare locality, so the physician rate is the same statewide.
Not on the physician fee schedule. Wisconsin 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 $39 for the office physician line or $31 for the hospital physician line in Wisconsin. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
In a doctor's office, $195.73 is Medicare's whole payment in Wisconsin: it covers the physician, the room and the supplies, with no separate facility fee. If it is done in a hospital outpatient department instead, the physician is paid about $154.78 and the hospital adds its own facility payment, bringing the national total to up to about $341. Services billed under other codes, such as lab work, are extra. Wisconsin ranks #12 of 51 states on the office rate (3% below the national office rate of $202.08).
