What G9484 covers

G9484 identifies a remote evaluation and management service for a new patient at the 45-minute level. A physician or other eligible clinician reports it for a remote encounter in which the clinician evaluates a patient who qualifies as new under the applicable coding rules. The code does not identify a particular diagnosis, specialty, or clinical problem, so the record should make the purpose and substance of the evaluation clear.

Select G9484 rather than a shorter- or longer-time new-patient level based on documentation supporting the 45-minute service. The record should identify the patient as new and describe the remote evaluation and time supporting the selected level. CMS's fee schedule data lists work and malpractice RVUs for the code and zero practice expense RVUs in both office and facility settings. The supplied CMS rules list no add-on, global-period, component, or reduction rule for this code.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

G9484 billing questions

How does G9484 differ from G9483 and G9485?

All three are remote E/M codes for new patients. G9483 identifies the 30-minute level, G9484 the 45-minute level, and G9485 the 60-minute level.

Can G9484 be used for an established patient?

No. G9484 is designated for a new patient; the G9486–G9489 codes identify remote E/M levels for established patients.

What documentation supports G9484?

Document the remote evaluation, the patient's new-patient status, and the time supporting the 45-minute level.

Should G9484 be reported with multiple units for a longer encounter?

The descriptor identifies a 45-minute new-patient service level, not a per-unit interval. Choose the applicable time-level code based on the documented service rather than multiplying units.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
