R244 – Revision total arthroplasty knee

OHIP Musculoskeletal System Surgical Procedures Code — MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits

Revision total arthroplasty knee, listed under Knee - Arthroplasty in the Musculoskeletal System section. E598 (with associated patellar replacement or patelloplasty) may be added to R244. R244 is on the list of services where a second assistant is payable without authorization (). When a unicondylar knee arthroplasty is revised to a total knee replacement without use of stems and/or augments, claim R441 (total replacement/both compartments) instead.
For the E420 trauma premium to be payable, the medical record must list the Injury Severity Score (ISS).
E025C is only eligible for payment for an unanticipated transfusion of blood during a surgical procedure where: 1. greater than 70 ml/kg of red blood cells are transfused for a patient with a weight up to 50 kg; or 2. 10 or more units of red blood cells are transfused for a patient with a weight exceeding 50 kg.

R244 is listed as a service where a second assistant's services are payable and authorization is not required.

For E010C, BMI is calculated by dividing the patient’s weight (in kilograms) by the square of the patient’s height (in metres).
