V847 – V847
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use V847 to bill for the administration of the COVID-19 vaccine to patients aged 12 and older when performed by a physician.
- Apply this code when the primary purpose of the patient encounter is the provision of the COVID-19 immunization service.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing V847 in conjunction with an office visit code like A007 is generally prohibited as the vaccine administration is intended to be a standalone service.
- Submitting V847 for patients under the age of 12 will result in a rejection, as different age-specific codes are required for pediatric doses.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the patient's OHIP number is valid at the time of service, as V847 claims are strictly validated against the Ministry's eligibility database.
