R032 – Curettage, electrodesiccation or cryosurgery - two lesions
OHIP Integumentary System Surgical Procedures Code — INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
This service provides for the treatment of two malignant lesions via curettage, electrodesiccation, or cryosurgery on body areas other than the face or neck. The service includes the biopsy of each lesion. As noted on page , payment is conditional upon a pathologist's report being retained in the patient's record. This service is not applicable for pre-malignant lesions. If the resulting wound requires repair by advancement, rotation, transposition, Z-plasty, flap, or graft, the claim should be for the appropriate repair procedure instead of this excision code.
The amount payable for excision of a pre-malignant lesion will be adjusted to a lesser fee if the pathologist’s report is not retained in the patient’s record.
In-situ lesions such as Lentigo Maligna (melanoma-in-situ) and Bowen's Disease (squamous cell carcinoma-in-situ) are considered malignant lesions.
