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

What G0102 covers

G0102 represents a screening examination in which a clinician inserts a gloved, lubricated finger into the rectum to assess the prostate by palpation. Primary care clinicians and urologists commonly perform it during an outpatient visit. The exam can assess features such as prostate size, contour, and palpable irregularities; the code identifies the screening service, not a laboratory test or evaluation of urinary symptoms.

Select G0102 when the documented purpose is prostate cancer screening and the digital examination was performed. The note should establish screening intent and record the examination and relevant findings. Do not use this code for a PSA blood test; G0103 identifies screening PSA testing. CMS physician fee schedule values for G0102 include work and practice expense, with practice expense values that differ by setting.
