E700 – Extraction of tooth - each additional tooth
OHIP Surgical Assists Code — DIGESTIVE SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
This fee code represents the surgical service for extracting an additional tooth. It is billed for each tooth removed after the first one in a single operative session. The primary extraction is billed using S023 (extraction of tooth - single). The service is classified as a digestive system surgical procedure as per the schedule on page :.
When to Use
- Use E700 for the second, third, and subsequent teeth extracted during the same operative session where S023 is billed for the first tooth.
- Use E700 when performing multiple extractions in a single encounter to correctly capture the additional work beyond the primary S023 service.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing E700 without an accompanying S023 on the same claim will result in an automatic rejection.
- Attempting to bill S023 multiple times for multiple teeth instead of using S023 for the first and E700 for the remainder is a common billing error that leads to claim adjustments.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the total number of E700 units corresponds exactly to the number of additional teeth extracted beyond the initial tooth covered by S023.
