Q140 – Q140
OHIP Critical Care Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use Q140 to bill for the completion of a specialized form or report when the service is not covered by a standard office visit fee.
- Apply this code when submitting specific administrative reports requested by third-party agencies that do not have a dedicated OHIP fee code.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing Q140 in conjunction with a standard office visit code like A007 is often rejected as the service is considered bundled into the visit.
- Using Q140 for services that are actually covered by specific diagnostic or procedural codes will lead to claim rejection for incorrect code selection.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the documentation clearly identifies the specific third-party request to justify the use of this administrative code over a clinical service code.
