L303 – L303
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L303 for the laboratory requisition of a routine complete blood count (CBC) when performed in a community or hospital lab setting.
- Apply this code when ordering a standard hemoglobin and hematocrit assessment as part of a routine diagnostic workup.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill L303 in conjunction with a consultation or assessment code (e.g., A007) if the laboratory requisition is the sole purpose of the patient encounter.
- Avoid billing L303 for tests that are already bundled into a global fee or specific procedure code, as this will trigger a rejection for duplicate billing.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the laboratory requisition is clearly linked to the diagnostic code that justifies the medical necessity of the CBC to prevent audit inquiries.
