What G0554 covers

G0554 covers additional monthly treatment-management work for a prescribed digital mental health treatment device, such as software used to support treatment of a behavioral health condition. A physician or other qualified health professional may review patient progress and engagement, communicate about device use, and coordinate treatment adjustments. The service concerns management of the digital treatment, not the supply of the device itself or a separate office visit.

Report G0554 only with the primary monthly management service, G0553, for additional time beyond that base service. The record should identify the device and service month, describe the management work performed, and support the additional time reported. CMS classifies G0554 as an add-on paid within the primary procedure’s global period, so it is not payable on its own.

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.

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.
