Common questions Copy link

Which ZIP codes does the Richmond, VA rate for 64483 cover?
The CMS ZIP-to-locality crosswalk maps 1,145 ZIP codes to this payment locality, and every one of them prices 64483 identically. Examples include 00303, 00304, 00323, 00353, 20101, 20102. 1 of them span more than one payment locality, so those need ZIP+4 for an exact match.
Why is the 64483 rate in Richmond, VA different from the national amount?
The national figure is a GPCI 1.000 baseline, not an amount any provider is paid. This locality's geographic practice cost indices — work 1.000, practice expense 0.983, malpractice 0.706 — scale each RVU component before the conversion factor is applied, which is why Richmond, VA allows less than the $264.87 baseline.
Does this 64483 rate apply everywhere in Virginia?
Yes. CMS prices Virginia as a single Medicare payment locality, so the same GPCIs — and the same allowed amount — apply statewide, not only in Richmond, VA. That includes Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake and Roanoke. The city name here is a search-facing label for a statewide payment locality, not a city-specific rate.
What is the facility rate for 64483 in Richmond, VA?
$97.32 in a facility, versus $259.84 in the office (non-facility) setting — a $162.52 difference. Only the practice-expense RVU changes with the setting: in an office the practice carries the overhead, so the professional payment is higher; in a hospital or ASC the facility bills its own fee.
What is the non-participating amount and limiting charge for 64483 in Richmond, VA?
A non-participating provider is paid $246.85 — 95% of the $259.84 participating fee schedule amount. On an unassigned claim the limiting charge caps what the patient can be billed at $283.88, which is 115% of the non-participating amount.
How much of the Richmond, VA 64483 rate does Medicare actually pay?
Medicare pays 80% of the allowed amount ($207.87) once the annual Part B deductible is met, and the beneficiary owes 20% ($51.97). Sequestration reduces Medicare's share by about 2% ($4.16), leaving $203.71. Sequestration never changes the allowed amount itself, which is why it is shown separately here.
