Compared with Medicare
$220.60 is Medicare's 2026 national base rate for this service in a hospital outpatient department, including the patient's share and before the local wage adjustment. The median hospital cash price, $288.42 across 503 hospitals, is 1.3× that.
Researchers often measure hospital prices as a multiple of Medicare's rate, and it is a concrete number to mention when you ask a hospital for a cash discount. Source: CMS.
What it is
This code covers the first hour of a psychologist's or physician's work on psychological testing: choosing tests, interpreting results, writing the report and reviewing the findings with the patient. It is often part of an ADHD, learning or mood evaluation.
What the price covers
The price covers the first hour of evaluation work. Each additional hour is billed with an add-on code (96131), and giving and scoring the tests is billed under separate codes.
Why prices differ
Prices depend on how many hours the evaluation takes and the setting; hospital-based programs and academic centers price differently from private practices.
What to ask
Ask whether the self-pay price for CPT 96130 covers only the first hour, and how many total hours and test-administration charges a typical evaluation bills.
