OHIP Error Code - ET5 - Virtual care program SLI code missing

Background:

The “ET5” error code will be issued and the entire claim will be returned to the physician’s/dentist’s error report if a Virtual Care Program B-code is billed but the Service Location Indicator code is not present on the claim.

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.
