1. Medicare rates are geographically adjusted to reflect the cost of living in your area. You'll have to provide your state and county to get a truly accurate answer. Everything a person would need to estimate Medicare rates is on the CMS website (http://www.cms.hhs.gov/). However, it would be difficult for the average person to do without assistance, because the calculations can be very complex. P.S. I assume that you're talking about the global rate for physician fees. Don't forget that there are also hospital fees to consider. Medicare reimburses hospital fees by DRG rate. (DRG = Diagnosis Related Grouping) Every hospital has its own specific DRG rate, so we'd also need to know what hospital you were going to deliver at to estimate the hospital fees.
