🤔 Is Removal of noncancer thickened skin growth, 2-4 growths Overpriced?

Based on the data, CPT 11056 shows a 1.9x variation in pricing across states — moderate variation by Medicare standards.

Medicare's fee schedule attempts to standardize pricing, though some variation is expected due to geographic cost-of-living adjustments and practice expense differences.

This analysis is based on publicly available CMS data and does not account for patient complexity, comorbidities, or facility-specific factors that may justify pricing differences.
