Source & method
Amounts computed from the CMS Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Q3 2026 release , GPCI 1.000, before the ~2% sequestration cut. This is our own clean-room grouping by common clinical scenario, not the AMA’s code-family taxonomy. It is a curated starter set, not a utilization-weighted specialty mix. A code with no amount is either not separately payable under the PFS or absent from the release—never a fake $0.
Urgent care is a care setting, not a rendering-provider specialty. CMS defines it as place of service 20, which uses the Office (non-facility) PFS rate. The public Provider and Service utilization file collapses exact place of service to facility versus non-facility, so this curated list is not presented as an exact POS 20 utilization mix or a utilization-weighted average.
