Q629 – Q629
OHIP Critical Care Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use Q629 as the mandatory administrative fee code when billing for the completion of a third-party form, such as a sick note or insurance document, where the patient is responsible for the fee.
- Apply this code in conjunction with the appropriate service code to indicate that the service is non-insured and the patient has been billed directly.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing Q629 alongside an insured service code (e.g., A007) will result in a rejection, as this code is strictly for non-insured services.
- Failing to include the specific fee amount charged to the patient can lead to administrative discrepancies during reconciliation.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the patient is informed of the fee prior to the service, as Q629 serves as the billing marker for private charges that are not covered by OHIP.
