Z622 – Dilatation of urethra - female
OHIP Psychiatric Code — UROGENITAL AND URINARY SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
Surgical procedure listed as Z622. The specific details for this procedure are not available in the provided context, therefore the exact codeClass cannot be determined. 'Urogenital and Urinary Surgical Procedures' has been used as a plausible placeholder based on proximity to other 'Z' codes in the schedule. Codes with a 'Z' prefix are classified as surgical procedures. As a surgical procedure, it is subject to general surgical billing rules, including the use of surgical suffixes and potential eligibility for age-based premiums as outlined in the Schedule of Benefits. Per , for procedures prefixed with a 'Z', a pre-admission assessment by the surgical specialist for the same illness means the admission assessment is deemed a specific re-assessment.
When to Use
- Use Z622 when performing a therapeutic or diagnostic dilatation of the female urethra in an office or hospital setting.
- Select this code for minor urethral stricture management where no more complex surgical intervention is required.
Common Pitfalls
- Claiming Z622 on the same day as Z615 will result in a rejection or nil payment for Z622.
- Failing to apply the appropriate age-based premium percentage for pediatric patients under 16 years of age, which is a common missed revenue opportunity for this surgical code.
Billing Tips
- Ensure that if you have performed a pre-admission assessment for the same illness, you bill the assessment as a specific re-assessment per GP23 rules rather than a new consultation.
