Need a locality-adjusted rate or a specific setting? Use the rate calculator. Every code above also has its own page with a contracted-rate (% of Medicare) table and a full RVU breakdown.
These amounts shift with where you practice — local GPCIs move most of them a few percent either way. Browse Medicare payment localities or look up yours by ZIP code.
Model Behavioral Health's blended payer mix
Blended-rate modeling across a specialty's payer mix isn't built yet — it's on the roadmap, and how loudly behavioral health asks for it is part of what decides when.

Source & method
National amounts computed from the CMS Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Q2 2026 release, GPCI 1.000, before the ~2% sequestration cut. This code list is our own clean-room grouping by common clinical scenario, not the AMA's code-family taxonomy. A code with no amount shown is either not separately payable under the PFS or was not in this release — never a fake $0.
