Y824 – Y824
OHIP Other Code · Schedule of Benefits
When to Use
- Use Y824 as a mandatory administrative tracking code when billing for the administration of the COVID-19 vaccine to patients aged 6 months and older.
- Apply this code in conjunction with the appropriate G-code (e.g., G590 or G591) to indicate the specific vaccine product administered during the encounter.
Common Pitfalls
- Billing Y824 without an accompanying G-code for the vaccine product will result in a rejection, as the Ministry requires both for complete reporting.
- Attempting to bill Y824 for non-COVID-19 immunizations is incorrect; this code is strictly reserved for the COVID-19 vaccine program.
Billing Tips
- Ensure the diagnostic code used is the specific COVID-19 immunization code to align with the Ministry's tracking requirements for this program.
