What G0422 covers
G0422 identifies a session in an intensive cardiac rehabilitation program that includes supervised exercise alongside structured lifestyle intervention. The program serves eligible patients with cardiac disease and is delivered by a multidisciplinary rehabilitation team, commonly in an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation setting, with medical oversight. Exercise is integrated with education and behavior-change support addressing cardiovascular risk factors.
Report G0422 for each intensive cardiac rehabilitation session that includes exercise; use G0423 when the session is conducted without exercise. Documentation should identify the patient's qualifying cardiac indication, participation in the intensive program, services provided that day, exercise activity, and clinical oversight. The code is reported by session, not by exercise minutes. The CMS fee schedule assigns resources to this service; the clinical record should support the session reported.
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.

How the G0422 rate is calculated

Payment rules and modifiers for G0422
G0422 has no global surgery period, no multiple-procedure, bilateral or assistant-at-surgery adjustment, and no professional/technical split. What changes the payment is where the service happens: the place of service on the claim decides whether Medicare pays the office or the facility rate.

G0422 billing questions
When should G0422 be used instead of G0423?
Use G0422 for an intensive cardiac rehabilitation session that includes exercise. Use G0423 for an intensive session conducted without exercise.
How does G0422 differ from 93798?
G0422 represents intensive cardiac rehabilitation, while 93798 represents conventional cardiac rehabilitation with exercise. The program type, not exercise alone, distinguishes the codes.
Is G0422 counted by minutes or sessions?
It is reported per session, rather than by the number of exercise minutes.
What documentation supports G0422?
Record the patient's qualifying cardiac indication and intensive-program participation, along with the services and supervised exercise provided during that session.
Can G0422 be used for any supervised cardiac exercise?
No. It identifies an exercise-inclusive session in an intensive cardiac rehabilitation program, not exercise alone or conventional cardiac rehabilitation.
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.
