Check a contract rate as a % of Medicare · 90952 nationwide

Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 90952 covers

This code represents monthly management of end-stage renal disease for a patient younger than 2 years who receives 2 or 3 face-to-face visits during the month. A physician or other qualified health care professional, typically a pediatric nephrologist, reports it for ongoing ESRD care. The visits address the patient’s renal status and dialysis management; this is not a code for an individual dialysis treatment or vascular access study.

Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status C, or carrier priced: CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. The code is selected by the patient’s age and the number of face-to-face visits in the month. It represents monthly services, rather than a separate unit for each visit.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.
