Q626 – Q626
OHIP Critical Care Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use Q626 as a tracking code when billing for the administration of the COVID-19 vaccine to patients who do not have a valid OHIP card.
- Apply this code specifically for uninsured patients to ensure the encounter is recorded for provincial reporting purposes despite the $0.00 fee.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not use Q626 for patients with valid OHIP coverage, as they should be billed using the standard COVID-19 immunization codes.
- Avoid using this code as a substitute for G050 or G051, as Q626 does not trigger a professional fee payment.
Billing Tips
- Ensure you are using the correct registration process for uninsured patients to avoid claim rejections when submitting Q626.
