D001

D001 – Closed reduction of finger dislocation

OHIP Orthopaedic Surgery Code — MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits

Closed reduction of a dislocation of a finger joint. This procedure may be billed with E584 for the application of a plaster cast outside of a hospital and E576 for each additional finger dislocation reduced during the same encounter.

When to Use

Use D001 for the manual closed reduction of a finger dislocation performed in an office or emergency department setting.
Use D001 when a patient presents with a digit dislocation that does not require open surgical intervention or internal fixation.

Common Pitfalls

Billing D001 for a fracture reduction; fracture reductions must be billed under the appropriate fracture codes (e.g., F-series codes) rather than D001.
Attempting to bill E584 (plaster cast application) for a splint or for a cast applied in a hospital setting, both of which are ineligible for this flat fee.
Failing to document the specific finger(s) reduced, which leads to rejections when claiming multiple units of E576.

Billing Tips

Always append E576 for each additional finger dislocation reduced during the same encounter, as D001 covers only the first digit.
If the procedure is performed outside of a hospital, ensure E584 is included on the claim if a plaster cast is applied to stabilize the reduction.
