OHIP Surgical Assists Code — GENERAL PREAMBLE · Schedule of Benefits
As an 'Extra Unit' for Anaesthesiologists' Services, E007C is payable for an additional 1 unit when an anaesthesiologist administers an anaesthetic to an adult aged 70 to 79 years, inclusive. These extra units are added to the procedural basic units and time units to calculate the total anaesthetic fee, as outlined on pages , , and .
When to Use
- Use E007C as an add-on unit when providing anaesthesia services to a patient aged 70 to 79 years inclusive.
- Apply this code specifically when the patient's age at the time of the procedure falls within the 70-79 range to increase the total unit value of the anaesthetic claim.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing E007C in combination with other age-based extra units like E021C or E014C will result in a rejection, as these are mutually exclusive.
- Failure to verify the patient's exact date of birth against the date of service often leads to incorrect age-based unit selection, triggering audit flags.
Billing Tips
- Ensure E007C is added to your total unit calculation (basic units + time units + E007C) before applying the anaesthesiologist unit fee multiplier.
