T590 – T590
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use T590 for the formal assessment and management of a patient with a confirmed diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in a specialized clinic setting.
- Apply this code when providing comprehensive multidisciplinary care that exceeds the scope of a standard A007 or A005 assessment.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing T590 on the same day as a general assessment code like A007 for the same patient will trigger a rejection for duplicate service.
- Failing to document the specific multidisciplinary components required for T590 makes the claim vulnerable to recovery during a Ministry audit.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the patient's diagnosis is clearly linked to the cystic fibrosis registry to prevent automatic rejection of the T590 claim.
