Q525 – Q525
OHIP Critical Care Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use Q525 to bill for the completion of a mandatory Ministry of Health form or report that does not have a specific fee code assigned.
- Apply this code when submitting required documentation for patient eligibility or specific administrative requests from the Ministry that are not covered under standard office visit fees.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing Q525 for routine chart notes or internal referrals, which are considered part of the global fee for an office visit and are not separately billable.
- Submitting Q525 for third-party forms (like insurance or disability applications) which should be billed directly to the patient or the requesting agency rather than OHIP.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the specific Ministry requirement or regulation mandating the form is clearly referenced in your billing notes to justify the claim during an audit.
