🤔 Is Electrical stimulation (unattended), to one or more areas for indication(s) other than wound care, as part of a therapy plan of care Overpriced?

Based on the data, CPT G0283 shows a 1.5x variation in pricing across states — moderate variation by Medicare standards.

Costs have decreased 14% since 2014. 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.
