What G0405 covers

G0405 covers a physician’s interpretation and written report for a screening ECG performed as part of the initial preventive physical examination, commonly called the Welcome to Medicare visit. The physician reviews the ECG tracing and documents findings such as rhythm, rate, intervals, or conduction abnormalities. The code represents the professional reading, not acquisition of the tracing, and is used in office or facility settings where the IPPE and screening ECG are performed.

Report G0405 when the professional interpretation and report are documented for the IPPE screening ECG. The record should connect the ECG to the preventive examination and include the interpretation and report. CMS identifies G0405 as professional-component-only; the technical portion is reported separately with G0404. G0403 represents the combined screening ECG service when both the tracing and interpretation are furnished.

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.

G0405 billing questions

Can G0405 be used for any ECG interpretation?

No. G0405 is for the professional interpretation and report of a screening ECG performed during the initial preventive physical examination. An ECG read for another clinical purpose uses the applicable ECG code for that service.

Which code covers the ECG tracing?

G0404 covers the tracing portion of the IPPE screening ECG. G0405 covers the interpretation and report; G0403 represents the combined service.

How does G0405 differ from 93010?

G0405 is specific to interpretation and reporting of the IPPE screening ECG. Code 93010 is the interpretation-and-report portion of a standard ECG service in other circumstances.

Does G0405 need modifier 26?

G0405 already identifies the professional interpretation-and-report service. The technical tracing is represented separately by G0404.

What documentation supports G0405?

Document that the ECG was obtained for screening during the IPPE and retain the physician’s interpretation and report. The record should distinguish the reading from the tracing 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.
