OHIP billing for specialists in Toronto
Pediatric academic centres bill within Ontario’s pediatric fee structure and hospital rules. Small mistakes on visit type or setting add up across high patient volumes.
Physicians First is an independent practice management company. This page describes billing support for Ontario specialists. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids).
Where we focus
Pediatric-appropriate visit and consult coding, hospital premiums when criteria apply, and clean narratives when care spans inpatient and outpatient settings.

Common questions
- We bill at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and in the community. Where do errors usually show up?
- Most drift we see is split-site and encounter-setting mismatch, plus premiums that never reach the claim. We align identifiers and documentation with the setting on the chart for each date of service.
- Does Physicians First replace our hospital billing office?
- No. We support your practice billing and revenue cycle as an independent partner. This page is context for affiliated specialists, not an endorsement by the hospital.
- What should we send before a first call?
- A sample month of rejection summaries and one or two pended claims is enough to spot systemic issues. If you do not have that handy, we still start with how you bill today and where time is leaking.
