L668 – L668
OHIP Dermatology Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use L668 for the professional component of a diagnostic Pap smear collection during an office visit.
- Apply this code when performing a cervical cytology screening in conjunction with a general assessment or specific pelvic examination.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill L668 if the Pap smear is performed as part of a comprehensive periodic health examination, as it is considered included in the global fee.
- Billing L668 alongside a minor procedure code like G365 is often rejected if the documentation does not clearly distinguish the two separate clinical tasks.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the diagnostic code reflects the reason for the smear, such as routine screening (V76.2) or abnormal findings, to avoid payment delays.
