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.
This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

G0102 billing questions
When should G0102 be used instead of G0103?
G0102 identifies the digital rectal examination; G0103 identifies a screening prostate-specific antigen blood test. Report the service actually performed and documented.
Does G0102 include the PSA blood test?
No. G0102 is for the screening digital examination, not blood collection or PSA analysis.
What documentation supports G0102?
Document that the examination was performed for screening, describe the digital prostate examination, and record relevant findings.
Can G0102 be reported with G0103?
The codes identify different screening services: a digital examination and a PSA test. Report both only when both services were performed and documented.
Is G0102 selected by examination time or number of areas examined?
No time or area-count level is identified for this code. It represents the screening digital examination of the prostate.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
