V848 – V848
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use V848 as a mandatory administrative code when billing for the completion of the 'Ontario Driver's Medical Examination Report' for patients aged 80 and older.
- Apply this code in conjunction with the appropriate visit fee (e.g., A007) to indicate the specific nature of the encounter is a mandatory Ministry of Transportation medical assessment.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing V848 as a standalone service without an associated visit code will result in a rejection, as it is a non-fee-bearing administrative indicator.
- Attempting to bill V848 for private insurance forms or non-MTO medical exams is incorrect and risks audit scrutiny for inappropriate code usage.
Billing Tips
- Ensure V848 is submitted on the same claim as your office visit code to link the administrative requirement to the clinical encounter.
