What G2003 covers

G2003 represents a clinician’s home visit with a new patient after discharge. The visit takes place in the patient’s home and is identified by the 45-minute level. It is distinct from the corresponding established-patient service and from other post-discharge home-visit levels that specify different times. The code is relevant when the clinician evaluates the patient in the home during the post-discharge period, rather than conducting a routine office encounter.

Report G2003 when the patient qualifies as new for the service and the documented visit supports this code’s 45-minute level. The record should establish the discharge context, home setting, patient status, clinical work performed, and time supporting code selection. CMS values the service through work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative value units. Choose a different code when the patient is established or the encounter supports another time level.

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.

G2003 billing questions

How does G2003 differ from the 30-minute level?

G2003 identifies the 45-minute new-patient level; G2002 identifies the 30-minute new-patient level. Select the level supported by the encounter documentation.

Can G2003 be used for an established patient?

No. G2003 is the new-patient level; G2008 is the corresponding 45-minute post-discharge home-visit level for an established patient.

What should the record support?

Document the post-discharge context, the home setting, the patient’s new-patient status, the service performed, and the time basis for selecting the 45-minute level.

Is this an office visit code?

No. G2003 identifies a post-discharge visit in the patient’s home, not an office encounter.

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.
