OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use T373 for the initial assessment and management of a patient presenting with a confirmed or suspected acute stroke requiring urgent neurological evaluation.
- Apply this code when performing a comprehensive neurological examination and decision-making process for patients eligible for hyperacute stroke interventions like thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill T373 in conjunction with a standard A007 or A005 assessment on the same day, as the stroke code is intended to be comprehensive for the acute event.
- Avoid using T373 for routine follow-up visits or non-urgent neurological consultations, as it is strictly reserved for the acute stroke pathway.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the clinical documentation clearly supports the 'acute' nature of the stroke event, including the time of onset and the urgency of the neurological assessment, to withstand audit scrutiny.
