S351 – S351
OHIP Urology Code · Schedule of Benefits
Uterine artery, prostate artery or thoracic duct embolization
When to Use
- Use S351 for uterine artery embolization (UAE) performed for symptomatic fibroids or adenomyosis.
- Use S351 for prostate artery embolization (PAE) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
- Use S351 for thoracic duct embolization when addressing chylothorax or chylous ascites.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing for diagnostic angiography or fluoroscopy imaging separately will result in automatic rejection, as these are bundled into the S351 fee.
- Attempting to claim S351 alongside S350 for the same patient on the same day will trigger a payment denial due to the explicit restriction on concurrent angiography services.
- Submitting claims for vascular access or selective catheterization as separate line items is incorrect, as these are considered included elements of the procedure.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the claim reflects the global nature of the procedure, as S351 covers the entire intraprocedural imaging and catheterization process.
