About G2250: Remote review of submitted images or video
Report G2250 when a clinician reviews recorded images or video submitted by an established patient, interprets the material, and follows up within 24 business hours.
G2250 covers a clinician’s remote assessment of recorded images or video sent by an established patient, such as a patient-submitted wound photograph. The clinician interprets the material and follows up with the patient within 24 business hours. It is an asynchronous service: the patient sends recorded material for review rather than connecting with the clinician for a live conversation. Physicians and other qualified health professionals may perform the assessment in an office or other practice setting.
Report G2250 when the review is not part of a related E/M service furnished in the preceding 7 days and does not lead to an E/M service or procedure within the next 24 hours or the soonest available appointment. Document the submitted material, the clinician’s assessment, and the follow-up communication, including its timing. The code has no stated time threshold; select it based on the service performed, not minutes spent reviewing the submission.

G2250 billing questions
How does G2250 differ from G2251?
G2250 is for reviewing recorded images or video submitted by the patient. G2251 describes a brief communication technology-based check-in, rather than this asynchronous image or video assessment.
Can G2250 be reported when the review leads to an office visit?
The service is not reported as G2250 when it leads to an E/M service or procedure within the next 24 hours or the soonest available appointment.
Does G2250 have a minimum time requirement?
The code’s service description does not specify a time threshold. Base reporting on the recorded-material assessment and required follow-up, not a set number of minutes.
What should the record include?
Document that an established patient submitted recorded images or video, the clinician’s interpretation, and the follow-up with the patient within 24 business hours. The record should also support that the service was separate from a related E/M service in the preceding 7 days.
Can a live video visit be reported as G2250?
No. G2250 describes an assessment of recorded material submitted by the patient, not a live video encounter.
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.
