L311 – L311
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L311 for the professional component of a complete blood count (CBC) when performed in an office setting.
- Bill this code when the laboratory analysis is completed on-site and the results are interpreted for the patient's immediate management.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill L311 if the blood sample is sent to an external laboratory, as the lab will bill the technical component directly to OHIP.
- Avoid billing L311 in conjunction with a consultation or assessment code if the laboratory work is considered part of the global fee for that visit.
Billing Tips
- Ensure that the laboratory equipment used is approved for office-based testing to avoid rejection during audit.
