On Wednesday, Apr. 6, 2011 OCA members were invited to join HCAI Senior Health Advisor Viivi Reis, OCA PMP and Software Development Manager Lauren James and Health Policy Officer Dr. Moez Rajwani for an instructional Webinar on HCAI coding.
The session discussed:
- ICD-10, CCI and GAP codes;
- the use of "S" codes for physical injuries caused by MVA;
- where to find codes including the full codeset;
- selecting codes in PMP;
- How to give adjusters enough information to adjudicate (codes do not offer sufficient detail in many cases).

Health Claims for Auto Insurance deadline
HCAI Becomes Mandatory on February 1, 2011 (PDF) — Bulletin January 26, 2011
As previous OCA bulletins have stated, the deadline to register with the Health Claims for Auto Insurance (HCAI) system is Feb. 1, 2011. As of this date, every health care facility and health care provider that submits OCF-18s, -21s and -23s to insurers in Ontario must do so only through HCAI.
The OCA has been working closely with HCAI over the past two years to ensure that there is a smooth transition to an electronic system for our members.
Members who use the PMP software should be aware that PMP is totally integrated with HCAI.
The OCA and HCAI have developed two videos to provide members with additional information on HCAI and PMP.

HCAI Rollout
Health care facilities have been assigned effective dates as part of the rollout of the new Health Claims for Auto Insurance (HCAI) system. Health care facilities that are part of Tiers 1 and 2 (the first two phases of the rollout schedule), have been assigned effective dates between Apr. 19 and Aug. 30.
If your clinic is in Tier 1 or 2, with an effective date between Apr. 19 and Aug. 30, you must complete your enrolment paperwork. There are consequences for businesses that do not complete their enrolment paperwork in time to be able to use HCAI by their assigned effective date.

To see if your clinic is part of Tier 2 of the rollout, click here.

If your health care facility is not assigned to Tier 1 or 2, you are not required to take any further action now. A Tier 3 list will be available in the late summer.
