Q618 – Q618
OHIP Critical Care Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use Q618 to bill for the completion of the Ontario Ministry of Health's 'Application for Registration' form for a patient who is not currently registered with OHIP.
- Apply this code when performing the administrative task of verifying and submitting the necessary documentation to facilitate a patient's initial enrollment in the provincial health plan.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing Q618 for routine office visits or consultations that are already covered under standard assessment codes like A007 or A001.
- Submitting this code without the corresponding patient registration documentation, which leads to automatic rejection during the Ministry's claim reconciliation process.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the patient's demographic information is fully verified against government-issued identification before submitting the claim to avoid administrative delays.
