L060 – Glucose, quantitative
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
Glucose, quantitative (Laboratory Medicine technical component)
When to Use
- Use L060 when billing for the technical component of a quantitative glucose test performed in a laboratory setting, distinct from the physician-performed G002.
- Apply this code when the laboratory facility is responsible for the specimen processing and quantitative analysis of a patient's glucose level.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing L060 in conjunction with G002 for the same patient encounter will trigger a rejection as these are mutually exclusive based on the site of service.
- Submitting L060 for point-of-care testing performed in the physician's office is an error, as L-series codes are strictly for laboratory technical components.
Billing Tips
- Ensure your billing software is configured to distinguish between laboratory-based technical fees (L060) and physician-performed office procedures (G002) to avoid duplicate claim rejections.
