UCR in Medical Billing Explained
In medical billing, UCR rates are used by insurance companies to determine the amount they will pay for out-of-network services. Providers may charge more than the UCR, leaving patients responsible for the difference.
For example, a patient receives an out-of-network service that costs more than the UCR rate, and they must pay the balance.
