E100Attendance at delivery (Anaesthesia)

OHIP Surgical Assists Code · Schedule of Benefits

Time units for attendance at delivery by an anaesthesiologist, calculated on the basis of 4 base units and 1 unit for each 15-minute interval (or part thereof) of constant attendance.

When to Use

  • Use E100C when you are required to be in constant attendance for a vaginal delivery, such as for a patient with high-risk cardiac disease or severe pre-eclampsia.
  • Bill E100C for the time spent managing a patient during a trial of labour after caesarean section (TOLAC) if your presence is required for the duration of the delivery.

Common Pitfalls

  • Billing E100C for routine epidural maintenance without constant attendance at the actual delivery, which is restricted to P016C only.
  • Attempting to claim anaesthesia extra units (e.g., E009C or E010C) alongside E100C, which will result in an automatic rejection.
  • Failing to document precise start and stop times in the chart, which is a mandatory requirement for audit compliance regarding the 15-minute interval units.

Billing Tips

  • Always pair E100C with P016C when providing continuous epidural maintenance to maximize the total unit value for the obstetrical encounter.
  • Ensure that after-hours premiums (E400C or E401C) are applied to the total unit value of E100C if the delivery occurs outside of standard daytime hours.
