The typical rates at the top of this page are in-office professional rates across the provider groups in Aetna’s files (as of September 2026) that carry one rate for the code — 2,013,049 for 99213. The middle rate is the one in the middle of those groups; half are paid within the “middle half” range. A group in two networks counts once in each. Your own contract can sit inside or outside that range, which is why the figure that matters is yours: look it up.

From the published file

Your Aetna fee schedule, without the portal.

Aetna publishes the rate it pays each in-network practice, by billing code, in its Transparency in Coverage files. RateBench reads the rate for your NPI, so you don’t have to request a schedule or look codes up one at a time. Try a code free. On a paid plan, Aetna sits next to your other payers for the codes you bill, re-read every month, with an email when a rate changes. How the fee schedule works →

Aetna can pay differently by network. If you’re in more than one Aetna network, or bill under more than one tax ID (TIN), the same code can carry different rates. RateBench shows which network each rate sits in.

What you get

The number, and everything behind it.

Negotiated rate

The exact dollar Aetna negotiated for a CPT code and your NPI — the genuinely negotiated figure, chosen by a fixed rule, not the “derived” line beside it.

Network & setting

Which Aetna network the rate sits in (an HMO and a PPO product can pay differently), and that it’s the in-office professional rate.

Provenance

The source file and its “as of” month, linked — so the number survives being questioned by a contracting manager.

Across your payers

On a paid plan, Aetna becomes one column of a sheet next to every other payer you take, with underpayment checks and change alerts.
