About G0283: Unattended electrical stimulation, non-wound indication
Supervised, unattended electrical stimulation applied to one or more areas for pain, spasm, or other non-wound indications, reported to Medicare under a therapy plan of care.
This service covers electrical stimulation set up by a therapist or other qualified provider and then allowed to run without continuous one-on-one attendance. Common examples are interferential current or premodulated stimulation for low back or neck pain, muscle spasm, or swelling, sometimes paired with a hot or cold pack. Physical therapists, occupational therapists, and physician practices provide it, predominantly in office and outpatient clinic settings. Medicare uses this code in place of CPT 97014.
The code is untimed, so one unit is reported per session regardless of how many body areas are treated or how long the electrodes are applied. Documentation should name the areas treated, parameters, duration, and goal tied to the therapy plan of care. Report the appropriate GP, GO, or GN therapy modifier rather than separate professional or technical components with modifiers 26 or TC. For the therapy multiple procedure payment reduction, CMS ranks same-day therapy services by practice expense and reduces practice expense for the second and later therapy units.

G0283 billing questions
Should 97014 or G0283 be billed to Medicare?
Medicare does not pay 97014 and uses G0283 for unattended electrical stimulation outside wound care. Other payers may accept 97014.
How many units can be billed if stimulation is applied to the low back and neck?
One unit. The code covers one or more areas per session and is not time-based, so multiple sites or longer durations do not add units.
When should 97032 be used instead?
Use 97032 when the clinician provides constant one-on-one attendance throughout the stimulation, such as adjusting parameters during functional activity. It is timed in 15-minute units and requires time documentation.
Which modifiers are needed?
Report the appropriate therapy discipline modifier, GP, GO, or GN. Bill the therapy service as a whole rather than using modifier 26 or TC for separate components.
Can it be billed for electrical stimulation to heal a pressure ulcer?
No. G0281 describes unattended stimulation for qualifying chronic wounds, including certain stage III or IV pressure ulcers; G0282 describes other unattended wound stimulation.
