L139 – L139
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L139 for the laboratory requisition of a complete blood count (CBC) when performed as a standalone service or in conjunction with an office visit.
- Apply this code when ordering a standard hematology profile to monitor chronic conditions like anemia or during routine health maintenance.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill L139 if the laboratory test is performed by an external facility that bills OHIP directly for the technical component.
- Avoid billing L139 on the same day as a comprehensive assessment if the lab work is considered an integral part of the diagnostic process already covered by the visit fee.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the laboratory requisition form is clearly linked to the diagnostic code used in your billing submission to prevent automated rejections.
