OHIP Error Code - ET4 - Virtual care program B-code missing or SLI code invalid

Background:

The “ET4” error code will be issued and the entire claim will be returned to the physician’s/dentist’s error report if:

a) a claim includes the “OTN” Service Location Indicator code but does not include a valid Virtual Care Program B-code; or
b) a claim includes a Virtual Care Program B-code and the Service Location Indicator code is present but is not “OTN”.

Solution:

If the claim is for video visit then the claim should be resubmitted with an applicable Virtual Care Program B-code or SLI code set to “OTN”. If the claim is not for a video visit, then the claim should be resubmitted without the “OTN” SLI code or a Virtual Care Program B-code.
