Care management
About G0082: Established patient care management home visit, 30 minutes
Reports a 30-minute care-management home visit for an established patient, distinguished from other home-visit levels by its time and patient status.
G0082 identifies a care-management home visit for an established patient at the 30-minute level. The service takes place in the patient’s home and addresses care-management needs there. It is distinct from a routine office encounter and from home visits coded for new patients. The descriptor does not identify a particular diagnosis or specialty, so the clinical record should make clear what care-management work was performed for the patient.
Select this code when the patient is established and the documented service supports the 30-minute level, rather than the shorter or longer established-patient levels. Documentation should identify the home setting, established-patient status, the care-management work, and the time supporting the selected level. CMS assigns work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative value units to the service under the Physician Fee Schedule. The CMS payment-rule facts supplied for this code list no special add-on, component, global-period, or reduction instruction to explain here.

G0082 billing questions
How does G0082 differ from G0081 or G0083?
All three are established-patient care-management home-visit levels. G0081 is the 20-minute level, G0082 is 30 minutes, and G0083 is 45 minutes.
Can G0082 be used for a new patient?
No. G0082 is for an established patient; the corresponding 30-minute new-patient level is G0077.
What documentation supports G0082?
Document that the visit occurred in the patient’s home, the patient’s established status, the care-management work performed, and the time supporting the 30-minute level.
Should I report G0082 more than once for a longer visit?
The descriptor identifies a 30-minute level. Do not infer multiple units from the visit length alone; follow the applicable code instructions and support the reported service in the record.
Where these rates come from
