Why would a Medicare claim for G0463 be denied or paid less?

These come from CMS indicators on this page, not general billing advice.

  • Its status indicator is X (statutory exclusion)—The statutory definition of physician services does not include this item. See status indicators
  • 363 codes form NCCI pairs with G0463 carrying modifier indicator 0—no NCCI-associated modifier bypasses the edit, so billed together on the same date of service, a line of the pair denies. See billing together
  • 5866 codes pair with G0463 under modifier indicator 1—separately payable only when an NCCI-associated modifier (59, or a more specific XE, XS, XP, or XU) is clinically appropriate and the documentation supports a distinct service; without one, a line of the pair denies. See billing together

Payer-specific coverage and documentation rules live outside these files, so a claim that clears every check here can still be denied on other grounds.

Modifier 59 and the X modifiers are not a universal bypass—CMS expects the most specific applicable modifier, and which one that is depends on the pair and the documented circumstances.

Source & method

Show sources

This page uses CMS's Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Q3 2026 release (effective July 2026). National baselines use GPCI 1.000 and exclude sequestration. Whether a national amount exists depends on the status and CMS’s payment instructions; blank RVUs are never treated as zero. Past releases are never edited, so these sources stay valid after CMS publishes a newer one. CMS owns the code description shown for HCPCS Level II codes. Our methodology explains sourcing, parsing, versioning, and how we cross-check claims before we publish them.

Use the (i) buttons next to each amount above for the exact row, columns, and math.
