OHIP Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures Code — DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
Videotape recording of clinical signs in association with spontaneous EEG. This fee code represents the technical component of the service. Unit means ¼ hour or major part thereof. See General Preamble for definitions and time-keeping requirements. Payable at nil if claimed with any baseline EEG.
When a service is based upon the number of “units” of service rendered, the physician must record on the patient's permanent medical record or chart the time when the insured service started and ended.
The physician submitting a claim for the technical component is responsible for the complete quality assurance process for all elements of the technical component of the service, including data acquisition, reporting, and record keeping. The physician must be able to demonstrate the above upon request by the MOH.
The physician maintains documentation that describes the process by which the physician monitors quality assurance in accordance with professional standards.
