Post-discharge care
About G2013: Established-patient post-discharge home visit
A 75-minute post-discharge home visit for an established patient, reported when a clinician evaluates recovery and ongoing needs in the patient's home.
G2013 represents an extended home visit after a patient’s discharge, for someone already established with the reporting clinician. A physician or other qualified clinician may assess recovery in the home, review the discharge plan, evaluate ongoing symptoms, and address medication changes or follow-up needs. The home setting distinguishes this service from an office visit.
Select this code for the established-patient 75-minute level, rather than a shorter established-patient level or a new-patient level. Documentation should support the post-discharge purpose, the home setting, the established-patient relationship, the work performed, and the time supporting the selected level. CMS values the service through work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative value units.

G2013 billing questions
How does G2013 differ from G2009?
Both are established-patient post-discharge home visits. G2013 is the 75-minute level; G2009 is the 60-minute level.
Can G2013 be used for a new patient?
No. G2013 is designated for an established patient. The corresponding new-patient 75-minute code is G2005.
What documentation supports G2013?
Record the post-discharge purpose, that the visit occurred in the home, the patient's established status, the assessment and management performed, and the time supporting the 75-minute level.
Does a post-discharge phone call qualify as G2013?
No. G2013 describes a home visit; a phone contact alone is not a home visit.
Is G2013 the same service as post-discharge care-plan oversight?
No. G2013 identifies an established-patient home visit, while G2014 describes post-discharge care-plan oversight. The service performed determines which code describes the work.
