Home-based evaluation and management
About G2002: Post-discharge new-patient home visit
Reports a 30-minute home-based evaluation and management visit for a new patient after discharge from an inpatient facility.
G2002 identifies a post-discharge home visit for a new patient at the 30-minute level. The clinician evaluates the patient in the home following an inpatient discharge; the encounter is distinct from a routine office follow-up. Physicians and other qualified practitioners who provide evaluation and management care may furnish this type of visit in the patient’s residence.
Select G2002 when the patient meets the applicable new-patient criteria and the documented visit corresponds to the 30-minute level. The record should support the post-discharge context, home setting, new-patient status, and time associated with the service. CMS assigns the code work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, with practice expense values listed for office and facility settings. The CMS facts provided list no add-on, global-period, component, or reduction rule for this code.

G2002 billing questions
How does G2002 differ from G2001 and G2003?
These are new-patient post-discharge home-visit levels distinguished by time: G2001 is the 20-minute level, G2002 the 30-minute level, and G2003 the 45-minute level.
Can G2002 be reported for an established patient?
No. G2002 is the new-patient level; G2007 is the corresponding 30-minute post-discharge home-visit code for an established patient.
What should the note support?
Document the home setting, the post-discharge context, the patient’s new-patient status, and the service time supporting the 30-minute level.
Does G2002 describe an office follow-up?
No. It identifies a post-discharge home visit, not an office-based follow-up appointment.
How is G2002 represented in the CMS fee schedule?
The CMS file lists work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs for the code, including practice-expense values for office and facility settings.
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.
