OHIP billing for specialists in Toronto
UHN spans multiple hospitals and programs. Affiliated specialists often bill across more than one site identifier in the same month. That is where version codes and encounter setting need to match the chart, not a default profile.
Physicians First is an independent practice management company. This page describes billing support for Ontario specialists. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by University Health Network.
Where we focus
We focus on split-site accuracy, consult depth that matches documentation, and premiums on eligible inpatient and after-hours work. AR follow-up is included so pended claims do not stall.

Common questions
- We bill at University Health Network 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.
