R033 – Curettage, electrodesiccation or cryosurgery - three or more lesions
OHIP Integumentary System Surgical Procedures Code — INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
This procedure involves the treatment of three or more malignant lesions on areas other than the face or neck using curettage, electrodesiccation, or cryosurgery. This service includes the biopsy of each lesion. Payment requires that a pathologist's report confirming malignancy is retained in the patient's record. A pre-malignant lesion is not considered a malignant lesion for payment purposes. When the resulting defect is repaired using advanced techniques like flaps or grafts, the appropriate repair code should be claimed instead of R033.
