W107Type 3 admission assessment

OHIP Neurology Code — CONSULTATIONS AND VISITS · Schedule of Benefits

A Type 3 admission assessment is a general re-assessment of a patient who is re-admitted to the long-term care institution after a minimum 3 day stay in another institution.

When to Use

  • Use W107 when a patient returns to your long-term care facility after an acute care hospital stay lasting at least 72 hours.
  • Use this code for the formal re-admission assessment when the patient does not qualify for a full W102 admission assessment due to the nature of their return.

Common Pitfalls

  • Claiming W107 in the same calendar month as W010 will result in an automatic rejection, as W107 is bundled into the monthly management fee.
  • Billing W107 for patients returning from a hospital stay of less than 3 days is an audit risk; these should be billed as routine visits.

Billing Tips

  • If you perform a W107, ensure you do not bill W010 for that specific month, or you must adjust your billing to account for the inclusion of the assessment in the monthly fee.
