J812
J812 – Myocardial wall motion - repeat same day
OHIP Cardio-Thoracic Surgery Code — NUCLEAR MEDICINE - IN VIVO · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use J812 when a second myocardial wall motion study is medically necessary on the same day following the initial J811 study to assess changes in wall motion post-intervention.
- Use J812 for the second or third repeat study when serial imaging is required within a single calendar day to monitor acute cardiac status.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing J812 in conjunction with J813 or J814 will result in a zero-dollar payment, as these services are mutually exclusive for billing purposes.
- Exceeding the maximum limit of three repeats per day will trigger automatic rejection of the claim.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the primary study J811 is billed first to establish the baseline, followed by J812 for each subsequent repeat to avoid processing errors.
