T424 – T424
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use T424 for the professional fee associated with the surgical implantation of a permanent pacemaker system when performed in an operating room setting.
- Apply this code when the procedure involves the placement of both the pulse generator and the lead(s) as a complete primary system implantation.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill T424 in conjunction with codes for temporary pacing or diagnostic electrophysiology studies performed during the same session, as these are considered bundled.
- Avoid billing T424 if the procedure is limited to a lead revision or generator change, as these require specific codes such as Z512 or Z513 instead.
Billing Tips
- Ensure that the operative report clearly details the lead placement and generator connection to support the full procedural fee, as this is a high-value code subject to post-payment review.
