Procedures with negotiated rates only

These 2 procedures have published per-payer insurance agreements but no single comparable dollar amount in the MRF — typically because the agreement is expressed as a percentage of charge, a fee schedule reference, or a contract algorithm. The number of payers indicates how many insurance plans have a negotiated rate on file.
