G462 – Administration of oral polio or rotavirus vaccine
OHIP Diagnostic & Therapeutic Procedures Code — DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
Administration of oral polio or rotavirus vaccine. This procedure is listed as delegatable on . As an immunization, it may be eligible for the G700 add-on if it is the sole reason for the visit.
When to Use
- Use G462 when administering the oral rotavirus vaccine during a dedicated immunization visit for an infant.
- Use G462 for the administration of oral polio vaccine when provided as a standalone service in the office setting.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing G462 alongside an assessment code (e.g., A007) will result in the rejection of the G700 premium, as the visit is no longer considered to have the immunization as the sole reason.
- Attempting to bill G462 in a hospital setting will lead to a rejection of the G700 add-on, as it is strictly prohibited in that environment.
Billing Tips
- Always append G700 to G462 when the patient presents exclusively for the vaccine to capture the additional $5.60 premium.
