Important: These are cost estimates only — not a quote and not medical advice.

The prices on this page are self-pay rates, drawn from federal Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files (CPT 99214Office/outpatient visit, established patient, moderate complexity). They represent what a patient might pay without insurance.

Your actual cost depends on: your specific insurance plan, your remaining deductible, your coinsurance percentage, whether you have met your out-of-pocket maximum, whether the facility and provider are both in-network, and any separate anesthesia or implant fees billed independently.

This page does not constitute medical advice. Whether you need this procedure, and which approach is right for you, is a decision to make with a licensed healthcare provider.

How to read this data

Negotiated Rate

The discounted price an insurer has agreed to pay a specific provider. Most insured patients' bills are calculated from this number, not the higher list price hospitals publish separately.

P5, Median, P95

P5 is the rate at the 5th percentile (low end), Median is the middle value, and P95 is the 95th percentile (high end). This range shows how much the same visit can vary between providers.

What this does not tell you

These rates do not tell you what you personally will pay out of pocket. That depends on your specific plan, how much of your deductible you have already met, your coinsurance rate, and whether the provider is in your network. Call your insurer's member line to get your exact estimate.

Why General Doctor (Adult) Visit Costs Vary Across Nevada

Nevada's healthcare costs run approximately 8% above national averages, driven by rapid population growth that has outpaced healthcare infrastructure development and the state's concentration of population in two major metropolitan areas. The Silver State's unique geographic challenges, from rural mining communities to bustling entertainment districts, create significant cost disparities across different regions.

Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability

Nevada's vast rural counties often have limited or no General Doctor (Adult) options, forcing patients to travel to Reno or Las Vegas for specialty care, while urban areas benefit from multiple health systems and competitive pricing. This geographic concentration means rural providers can command premium rates due to lack of competition and higher overhead costs.

Facility Type and Overhead Costs

Hospital-owned practices in Nevada, particularly those affiliated with major systems like Renown Health in Reno or Dignity Health in Las Vegas, typically charge 30-50% more than independent physician offices due to higher facility fees and administrative costs. Independent practices often offer more flexible pricing and cash-pay discounts to compete with larger health system networks.

Insurance Market Competition in Nevada

Nevada's insurance marketplace features robust competition among UHC, Anthem, and Aetna, along with regional plans, creating varied negotiated rates that can significantly impact patient costs for the same General Doctor (Adult) visit. The state's relatively concentrated population centers allow insurers to build competitive networks, though rural areas may have limited in-network options.

Physician Supply and Demand in Nevada

With 337 active General Doctor (Adult) providers serving Nevada's 3.1 million residents, the state faces moderate physician shortages, particularly in rural areas where recruitment and retention challenges drive higher compensation and patient costs. Urban markets like Las Vegas and Reno have better provider density, creating more competitive pricing and shorter wait times for appointments.

Cost by Procedure Type
