OHIP Remittance Advice code DD

Not allowed as diagnostic code is unrelated to original eye exam

Ontario Ministry of Health, Remittance Advice Explanatory Codes

Where you’ll see it

On your Remittance Advice. The claim was assessed, and this explanatory code says how it was paid, reduced or refused. The Remittance Advice arrives monthly, in the first week.

The diagnostic code is the problem

The diagnostic code is missing, invalid, or not accepted with this fee code. Correct the diagnostic code and resubmit. The service code itself may be fine.

For a claim already on your Remittance Advice, follow the ministry's instruction in the description. That is either a corrected resubmission or a Remittance Advice Inquiry (RAI), and both are still subject to the three-month limit from the date of service.

Our summary is a guide, not a ruling. The ministry’s wording and the current Schedule of Benefits are what OHIP applies. See OHIP Error Report vs Remittance Advice: reading the codes for how the two reports differ.
