Starting your practice comes with a lot of new questions, and billing is usually one of them. Here you'll find straightforward answers about OHIP billing, getting paid, and using AE Online.
Common problems include choosing an incorrect fee code, missing required claim information, overlooking billing rules or premiums, entering incorrect patient information, and failing to follow up on rejected or unpaid claims. Developing a consistent billing workflow—and reviewing remittance information rather than assuming every submitted claim was paid—can reduce missed revenue.
Locum billing can depend on the practice arrangement, physician specialty, location and how the physician or group is compensated. Before beginning a locum, it is important to establish which billing number, group information and other claim details should be used and whether the services are being billed directly to OHIP or handled through the practice.
