OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use T618 as the mandatory administrative code when billing for the completion of a specialized medical certificate or report that is not covered by the standard office visit fee.
- Apply this code in conjunction with specific service codes to track administrative throughput for non-insured or third-party requested documentation.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing T618 as a standalone service will result in a rejection; it must be submitted alongside the appropriate service code for the clinical encounter.
- Using T618 for standard clinical notes or internal referrals is an audit risk, as it is strictly reserved for formal certificate or report completion.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the associated diagnostic code reflects the underlying condition necessitating the certificate to justify the administrative effort.
