About these rates
About this rate table
- Source
- Negotiated or fee-schedule amounts published directly by payers in their machine-readable files.
- Rate shown
- Published commercial rate for laparoscopic cholecystectomy (47562).
- Method
- Eligible rates are grouped by payer and billing entity so the benchmarks use a consistent service and billing basis.
The state map uses one consistent Aetna reference series; it does not average already-aggregated payer values. The service-line table keeps unlike codes, settings, and billing units in separate comparisons.

Payer-published rates provide market context. They do not establish a practice's contracted rate or the total cost of care.
- Source and periodRates come from the specialty's national report. The displayed period follows the processed data included in the latest published snapshot and updates when that snapshot is refreshed.
- Comparable ratesComparisons use positive professional fee-for-service negotiated and fee-schedule dollar amounts. Percentages, bundled arrangements and per-diem rate types are excluded. Modifier cohorts and code-specific amounts remain separate.
- CalculationRates are reduced to one modal value per NPI and TIN entity, averaging tied modes. Two percent per tail is targeted for trimming while keeping boundary ties. Benchmarks require at least 10 included entities and are not weighted by patient volume.
- CoverageNational report coverage does not guarantee every payer or state is available for every code. Anthem represents the displayed Anthem cohort, rather than all regional Blue plans. Missing benchmarks are not zero rates.
- Billing contextMatch the exact code, billing unit, modifier, setting and network. Equipment rentals and supplies require their own interval and quantity checks. Professional rates exclude facility charges; anesthesia conversion factors are outside these comparisons.

Questions about general surgery benchmarks
How to interpret the selected market and payer-published rates.
What does the national benchmark compare?
The headline uses Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (47562). The other reference codes and service lines provide separate comparisons rather than combining unlike services.
Why is a payer or state missing?
A benchmark appears only when the selected code and cohort meet the publication rules, including at least 10 entities after trimming. Report-wide coverage can be broader than an individual comparison.
Will the reporting period change?
Yes. The period displayed with the benchmark follows the processed source data when the publication snapshot is refreshed.
