What G0104 covers

G0104 represents a colorectal cancer screening examination using a flexible scope to inspect the rectum and sigmoid colon. It is intended for screening rather than evaluation of symptoms. Gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons, and other qualified physicians commonly perform the procedure in an outpatient endoscopy center or hospital department. The record should identify the screening purpose, the procedure performed, its findings, and any intervention.

Report one screening procedure, supported by documentation of the clinical indication and examination. The code has a 0-day global period, so routine same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When other procedures subject to the CMS multiple-procedure reduction occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this single endoscopic service. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.

G0104 billing questions

How is G0104 different from a diagnostic flexible sigmoidoscopy?

G0104 is for a colorectal cancer screening examination. Use a diagnostic sigmoidoscopy code, such as 45330, when the procedure is performed to investigate a symptom or other diagnostic indication.

Should modifier 50 be reported?

No. This is a single endoscopic screening service, not a bilateral procedure; modifier 50 is inappropriate.

Is routine same-day evaluation separately included?

Routine same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included under the 0-day global period.

What happens when another procedure is performed in the same session?

Under the CMS multiple-procedure reduction, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the other qualifying procedures are paid at 50%.

What documentation supports G0104?

Document the screening purpose, the flexible sigmoidoscopy performed, its findings, and any intervention. If the procedure is diagnostic rather than screening, select the code that represents the diagnostic service.

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.
