What G0182 covers
G0182 covers a physician’s supervision of a patient receiving hospice care. The work may include developing or revising the treatment plan, reviewing hospice status reports and related studies, and communicating with hospice clinicians, family members, or caregivers to make care decisions. It is generally non-face-to-face physician work rather than a hospice team service or a patient visit.
Report one unit for a calendar month when the physician’s qualifying supervision work reaches at least 30 minutes. Documentation should identify the month, the physician’s time, and the specific plan review, clinical information reviewed, and care coordination performed. Routine hospice activities or staff time alone do not establish the physician’s qualifying work. CMS assigns the code physician fee schedule values for work, practice expense, and malpractice; the applicable payment is reflected in the fee schedule.
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.

G0182 billing questions
How does G0182 differ from G0181?
G0182 is for physician supervision of a hospice patient; G0181 is for supervision of a patient receiving home health services. Select the code based on the patient’s care program.
What time threshold supports G0182?
The physician’s qualifying supervision work must total at least 30 minutes in the calendar month. The code is reported once for that month, not in 15-minute units.
Can a hospice visit be counted toward G0182?
G0182 describes physician supervision work, not a face-to-face hospice evaluation. Document the qualifying care-planning and coordination work separately from any patient visit.
What documentation should support the claim?
Record the calendar month, total physician time, and the work performed, such as treatment-plan revision, review of patient reports or studies, and clinical communications supporting care decisions.
Is G0182 reported with G0181 for the same patient?
The codes describe supervision under different programs: hospice care for G0182 and home health care for G0181. Use the code that matches the care being supervised.
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.
