Z783 – Secondary closure

OHIP Musculoskeletal System Surgical Procedures Code — MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits

A surgical procedure for the delayed closure of a wound. It is explicitly noted that this service is distinct from debridement of a wound intended to heal by secondary intention. This procedure may be performed following other surgeries, such as a fasciotomy for compartment syndrome (e.g., in the elbow, forearm, tibia, or fibula).

Z783 is only eligible for payment for the delayed surgical closure of a wound. Debridement of a wound with healing by secondary intention is not payable as Z783.
