Home health certification

About G0179: Home health plan recertification

Reports a physician’s recertification of a Medicare home health plan when the patient continues to meet coverage requirements for home-based skilled care.

G0179 represents a physician’s review and recertification of an existing Medicare home health plan of care. The physician assesses whether the patient continues to qualify for home health and whether the plan remains appropriate, based on the patient’s current condition and agency information. The patient need not be present. Recertification may support continued skilled nursing or therapy at home; it does not represent the therapist’s or nurse’s visit. The home health agency commonly supplies the updated plan and clinical information for the physician’s review.

Report G0179 for recertification, not the initial home health certification. Documentation should support the physician’s review, the patient’s continuing need for covered skilled services, and the signed, dated recertification and plan. This is not a time-based service reported in 15-minute increments. The CMS fee schedule assigns 0.44 work RVUs, 0.86 practice-expense RVUs in both office and facility settings, and 0.03 malpractice RVUs.

G0179 billing questions

When should G0179 be used instead of G0180?

Use G0179 for recertification of an existing home health plan. G0180 represents the initial certification.

Does the patient need to attend the recertification?

No. G0179 represents the physician’s review and recertification; the patient need not be present.

What documentation supports G0179?

Keep the physician’s review, the signed and dated recertification and plan, and clinical support for the patient’s continuing need for covered home health services.

Is G0179 billed in timed units?

No. It represents recertification work, not a service reported in 15-minute increments.

Does G0179 report the home health therapy visit?

No. It reports the physician’s recertification. The home health agency reports the therapy service under the applicable therapy code.

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.
