What does uhc pay orthopedics groups in FL?

Median published rate is 80% of Medicare across 1168 NPIs (September 2026 files).

Data as of the September 2026 payer files.

Across 178 procedure codes and 1 payer, the median published rate is 105 percent of locality-adjusted Medicare in the September 2026 payer files. UnitedHealthcare is the only payer with enough confirmed NPIs to publish here, at 105 percent of Medicare, so there is no spread to compare yet. The best-covered row rests on 1168 confirmed NPIs, and any combination under five is withheld rather than shown thin. These are contracted amounts the payer published, not what a practice was paid, and every row clears the ghost-rate filter, so each NPI counted here actually billed the code in the Medicare utilization file.

How this is measured

Rates come from each payer's published Transparency in Coverage machine-readable file, filtered to this specialty's codes and to NPIs the CMS Medicare utilization file shows billing that code. Percentiles are computed per payer, code and site of service across those NPIs, then divided by the locality-adjusted Medicare amount for the same code and place. Full methodology.
