About G0557: Advanced primary care management, level 2
G0557 reports monthly advanced primary care management for a patient with two or more qualifying chronic conditions receiving coordinated, comprehensive primary care.
G0557 represents a monthly package of advanced primary care management for a patient with two or more chronic conditions expected to last at least 12 months, or until the patient’s death, and that place the patient at significant risk of death, acute exacerbation or decompensation, or functional decline. A primary care physician or other eligible practitioner uses this approach to coordinate ongoing care across the patient’s conditions, providers, and settings. Work may include maintaining a care plan, coordinating referrals and transitions, supporting patient access and communication, and tracking population health needs.
Report the code for an eligible patient receiving the level 2 service, rather than selecting it according to staff time spent in a particular month. The record should support the chronic-condition criteria, the patient’s enrollment or agreement to receive the service, and the care-management and coordination work provided. Keep documentation showing how the practice addressed the patient’s ongoing needs, such as care-plan updates, communication, or coordination with other clinicians. G0557 is the middle level in the advanced primary care management code family; G0556 and G0558 distinguish other patient eligibility levels.

G0557 billing questions
How does G0557 differ from G0556?
G0557 is the level for a patient with two or more qualifying chronic conditions. G0556 is the lower level for a patient with one qualifying chronic condition.
When would G0558 be more appropriate?
G0558 is the higher level for a patient with two or more qualifying chronic conditions who also meets the additional eligibility criterion for that level, including Qualified Medicare Beneficiary status.
Is G0557 reported according to staff time?
No. It represents a monthly advanced primary care management service, not a service selected by adding up a set number of staff minutes.
What documentation supports G0557?
Document the patient’s qualifying chronic conditions and the care-management services furnished, such as coordination with other clinicians, care-plan maintenance, or communication addressing ongoing care needs.
How is G0557 different from chronic care management code 99490?
G0557 reports the advanced primary care management model and is not selected using a monthly time threshold. Code 99490 describes time-based chronic care management, so the service model and documentation basis differ.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
