L335 – L335
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L335 for the professional component of a diagnostic Pap smear when the physician performs the collection and interpretation of the slide.
- Apply this code when submitting for a routine cervical cytology screening in an office setting where the physician is responsible for the specimen preparation and clinical assessment.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill L335 in conjunction with a general assessment code like A007, as the laboratory component is typically bundled or claimed separately by the facility.
- Avoid billing L335 if the specimen is sent to an external laboratory that bills OHIP directly for the cytology service, as this constitutes double-billing.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the diagnostic code linked to L335 supports the medical necessity of the screening to avoid automatic rejections during Ministry reconciliation.
