OHIP Consultations and Visits 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. A general re-assessment includes all the services listed for a general assessment, with the exception of the patient's history, which need not include all the details already obtained in the original assessment. This service applies to patients in chronic care hospitals, convalescent hospitals, nursing homes, homes for the aged, and designated chronic or convalescent care beds in hospitals, other than patients in designated palliative care beds. For emergency calls and other special visits to these in-patients, use General Listings and Premiums when applicable.
