OHIP Consultations and Visits Code — CONSULTATIONS AND VISITS · Schedule of Benefits
Midwife or Aboriginal Midwife-Requested Anaesthesiologist Assessment (MAMRAA) is an assessment of a mother or newborn provided by an anaesthesiologist in a non-emergency hospital in-patient setting. It is requested via a written request from a midwife or aboriginal midwife due to the complex, obscure, or serious nature of the patient's problem.
The service must include the common and specific elements of a general or specific assessment. The anaesthesiologist must submit their findings, opinions, and recommendations verbally to the midwife or aboriginal midwife and in writing to both the midwife or aboriginal midwife and the patient's primary care physician, if applicable.
Urgent or emergency requests may be initiated verbally but must be followed by a written request, which must be retained in the patient's permanent medical record. This service is subject to the same conditions as A816.
