OHIP error code - VTC - Virtual Tech Code Required

Background:

Effective October 1, 2021, virtual services (K080, K081, K082, and K083) rendered on or after October 1, 2021 will require a modality tracking code to be submitted with the claim to identify the technology used to deliver the service: phone (K301) or video (K300). Please refer to the OHIP INFOBulletin 210904.

Solution:

Add one (1) unit of the modality indicator tracking codes (K300A- video/ K301A - phone) to the same claim as the virtual services (K080, K081, K082, K083, A[][]VA, E[][]VA).

We have developed a feature "Auto-populate Tracking Code", which allows physicians to select a "default" modality (phone v.s. video) and for our system to automatically add the tracking code to the service dates where virtual service codes are billed. See Auto-Populate Virtual Tracking Code (K300 / K301) for more details.
