E810
E810 – with coloanal anastomosis, to S213
OHIP Surgical Assists Code · Schedule of Benefits
Surgical add-on for coloanal anastomosis when performed in conjunction with anterior resection or proctosigmoidectomy (S213).
When to Use
- Use E810 when performing a coloanal anastomosis specifically during an anterior resection or proctosigmoidectomy (S213) where the anastomosis is constructed below the peritoneal reflection.
- Apply this code when the surgical technique involves the direct suturing of the colon to the anal canal, distinguishing it from standard colorectal anastomoses.
Common Pitfalls
- Failing to append the suffix 'A' to E810, which will result in an automatic rejection as it is a premium add-on code.
- Billing E810 without the base procedure S213 on the same claim, as the premium is strictly linked to the primary resection code.
Billing Tips
- Maximize your claim by simultaneously billing E808 for neo-rectal pouch formation and E793 if the procedure was completed laparoscopically, as these are all compatible add-ons to S213.
