T705 – T705
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use T705 for the professional fee associated with a diagnostic or therapeutic bronchoscopy procedure performed in a hospital setting.
- Bill T705 when performing a flexible bronchoscopy that includes bronchoalveolar lavage or endobronchial biopsy, provided no higher-valued procedural code is more appropriate for the specific intervention.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing T705 in conjunction with other procedural codes that already include the professional fee for bronchoscopy, leading to automatic rejection for duplicate billing.
- Failing to ensure the procedure is performed in an approved facility, as T705 is not eligible for claims originating in a private office setting.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the claim includes the appropriate diagnostic code that justifies the necessity of the bronchoscopy to avoid manual review or audit triggers.
- If a biopsy is performed during the same session, verify if the specific biopsy code provides a higher reimbursement than T705, as you cannot bill both for the same procedure.
