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

What G0077 covers

G0077 represents a care management visit delivered in the patient’s home for someone new to the clinician or practice under the applicable new-patient classification. The service is distinguished by its home setting and 30-minute level; it is not simply a label for any home-based evaluation. It may be used when a clinician provides care management directly to a new patient in the home, rather than preparing a home care plan under a separate code.

Report the new-patient code that matches the documented service time: G0077 is the 30-minute level. The record should support the home setting, the patient’s new-patient status, the time spent, and the care management work performed. CMS assigns this code physician-work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative values in the Physician Fee Schedule.
