L194 – L194
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L194 for the laboratory requisition of a complete blood count (CBC) when performed as a standalone diagnostic test.
- Apply this code when ordering a basic hematology profile for routine screening or monitoring of chronic conditions like anemia.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill L194 in conjunction with more comprehensive hematology panels that already include the CBC components, as this will trigger a duplicate service rejection.
- Avoid billing L194 if the laboratory service is already bundled into a global procedure fee or a specific assessment code that includes diagnostic testing.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the diagnostic code linked to L194 matches the clinical indication documented in the chart to avoid automated audit flags for unnecessary testing.
