How to read this table
- Order. States are listed from the highest published rate to the lowest. No single unit is shared by 8 or more states for 92607, so the order is by published amount and is not a like-for-like rank.
- Medicaid rate. The most the state's fee-for-service program pays for one unit, as published. 30 of the 44 states list more than one rate for 92607, by modifier, provider type or setting; the table shows the one that matches the provider level and setting used across states, without add-ons.
- Unit. Of the 44 states, 2 publish 92607 per unit and 1 per first 1 hour, and 41 schedules print no unit at all (a flat amount per service).
- Per hour. 92607 is not billed in time units in these states, so no hourly figure is shown.
- Managed-care plans. The rule the state sets for its plans on this rate. What each rule means is explained below.
- % of Medicare. Medicare amounts exist for 92607, but no state's Medicaid unit matches Medicare's billing unit closely enough to compute a percentage.
- Source and date. Each Source link opens the state's own document; “since” is the date the rate took effect.
Why 92607 rates differ between states
Published rates for 92607 run from $14.84 in Illinois to $185.72 in Alaska, a 12.5x gap in the same unit. Half the states pay more than the median of $100.34 and half pay less. The usual reasons for a spread like this in therapy (PT/OT/speech) rates:
- States pay therapy by CPT code, but many pay therapy assistants a reduced percentage and some pay differently in outpatient hospital, private practice and home settings.
- Children's therapy is driven by the EPSDT benefit, so some states maintain separate pediatric rates or programs.
- Visit limits, prior authorization and annual caps vary by state and change how much a single code is worth to a practice.
Timing matters too. 29 states set the current rate for 92607 in 2026 or later, while 7 states still pay a rate that took effect in 2022 or earlier. A state that has not updated its rate in years will drift down the ranking as others raise theirs.
What managed-care plans pay for 92607
Most Medicaid members are in managed-care plans, and plans don't publish their provider fee schedules. For 92607, the public signal is the rule each state sets for its plans, recorded on each rate above.
In 7 states, the published rate binds plans: a floor, a pass-through or a state-set rate. In 22 states, plans negotiate and the published rate is a benchmark or out-of-network default. In 1 state, the service is paid outside the plans or through a state-directed payment. The rule for the remaining 14 states is not classified yet.
- Plans negotiate; the published rate applies out of network (22 states). In-network rates can be above or below the published rate. The published rate is the benchmark both sides know, and the fallback if no contract is signed.
- Plans must pay at least the published rate (7 states). The published rate is your floor. Negotiate up from it, and if a plan pays less, the contract provision is the basis for a payment dispute.
- Paid by the state, outside the plans (1 state). Bill the state's Medicaid program, not the plan, at the published rate. There is no plan contract to negotiate for this service.
Plan-negotiated rates are never estimated here. To see the rule and its citation for a particular state, open that state's managed-care page, for example Alaska managed care.
Units and billing for 92607
92607 is a CPT medicine code in the therapy (PT/OT/speech) line, billed mostly by physical, occupational and speech therapists and therapy practices. The medicine section runs from vaccines and psychiatry to dialysis, cardiology and therapy. Some of its codes are timed in 15-minute units, others are billed once per session or per test, so the unit matters more here than in most sections.
Medicare applies a rule for counting timed minutes into units; Medicaid programs may follow it or set their own, so check the state's therapy manual. Many treatment codes are timed in 15-minute units, while evaluations and re-evaluations are billed once per session.
Medicare's 2026 physician fee schedule pays $113.61–$156.90 for 92607 (non-facility), depending on the Medicare locality. That is a useful reference point, but Medicare and Medicaid can define the unit differently, so compare only where the units match.
Before billing, confirm the rate, unit and any modifier with the state's current schedule or the plan: the amounts here are as published, not a guarantee of payment.
