L585 – L585
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L585 as a mandatory administrative code to indicate the completion of a specific diagnostic or therapeutic procedure when required by the Schedule of Benefits.
- Apply this code when linking a secondary service or diagnostic test that requires a primary procedure code to be present on the same claim for validation.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing L585 as a standalone service will result in an automatic rejection as it carries a zero-dollar fee and is strictly a tracking or validation code.
- Failing to include the corresponding primary procedure code on the same claim will cause the Ministry to flag the submission for missing mandatory information.
Billing Tips
- Ensure L585 is submitted on the same claim record as the primary procedure to satisfy the Ministry's validation requirements for the associated service.
