About G2003: Post-discharge new-patient home visit
G2003 identifies a 45-minute post-discharge home visit for a new patient, reported when the encounter meets this code’s patient-status and time level.
G2003 represents a clinician’s home visit with a new patient after discharge. The visit takes place in the patient’s home and is identified by the 45-minute level. It is distinct from the corresponding established-patient service and from other post-discharge home-visit levels that specify different times. The code is relevant when the clinician evaluates the patient in the home during the post-discharge period, rather than conducting a routine office encounter.
Report G2003 when the patient qualifies as new for the service and the documented visit supports this code’s 45-minute level. The record should establish the discharge context, home setting, patient status, clinical work performed, and time supporting code selection. CMS values the service through work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative value units. Choose a different code when the patient is established or the encounter supports another time level.

Is this an office visit code?
No. G2003 identifies a post-discharge visit in the patient’s home, not an office encounter.
