X232 – CT Pelvis with IV contrast
OHIP Laboratory Code — DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGY · Schedule of Benefits
This service represents a computed tomography (CT) of the pelvis with the administration of intravenous contrast. It is a diagnostic imaging procedure used to visualize the bones, soft tissues, and blood vessels within the pelvic region.
When to Use
- Use X232 when a CT of the pelvis is performed specifically with intravenous contrast to enhance soft tissue or vascular visualization.
- Select X232 for pelvic imaging where the clinical indication requires contrast enhancement, as opposed to X231 which is for non-contrast studies.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing X232 in combination with X234 is a common rejection error, as these codes are mutually exclusive for the same patient encounter.
- Failure to document the clinical necessity for contrast enhancement can lead to audit risks regarding the appropriateness of the procedure code selection.
Billing Tips
- Ensure that age-based premiums are applied correctly to the X232 base fee when the patient is under 16 years of age to maximize eligible revenue.
