T813 – T813
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use T813 as a diagnostic code to indicate a post-procedural hemorrhage or hematoma complicating a procedure when submitting claims for additional surgical interventions.
- Apply this code when documenting complications that require a return to the operating room or additional bedside procedures to manage post-operative bleeding.
Common Pitfalls
- Do not bill T813 as a standalone service code, as it is a diagnostic indicator that must be linked to a specific procedural fee code.
- Avoid using T813 for minor post-operative oozing that is managed within the global surgical period, as this is considered part of the original procedure's fee.
Billing Tips
- Ensure T813 is correctly mapped to the secondary diagnosis field in your billing software to justify the medical necessity of additional procedural codes like S001 or S002.
