G194
G194 – Complete multichannel urodynamic assessment - with EMG
OHIP Diagnostic & Therapeutic Procedures Code — DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Claim G194 only when performing a multichannel urodynamic study that specifically includes sphincter electromyography (EMG) to assess pelvic floor activity.
- Use this code as a mandatory add-on to G193 when the clinical protocol requires EMG monitoring to differentiate between detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia and other voiding dysfunctions.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing G194 without an accompanying G193 claim will result in an automatic rejection as it is defined strictly as an add-on procedure.
- Attempting to claim G900 for residual urine measurement on the same day as G194 will trigger a rejection due to the explicit billing restriction between these codes.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the EMG tracings are clearly documented in the procedure report to justify the additional G194 fee during a potential Ministry audit.
