Quebec RAMQ billing

FrontRx lets Quebec physicians add and manage RAMQ (Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec) billing codes for each patient. This feature is for Quebec RAMQ billing only. You can browse the full RAMQ code catalogue, add billing modifiers, and star frequently used codes for quick reuse.

You are responsible for choosing codes that accurately reflect the service provided.

Steps

Open a patient and select Billing to see existing billing entries, then select New Billing.
Select Select billing code, then search or browse the RAMQ catalogue; starred codes appear at the top. Choose a code.
If a referring doctor is required for the code, select one from your prescribers list.
Fill in the required act details: the unit (for example outpatient, emergency, hospitalization), and the start date and time. Add an end date or measurement unit if applicable.
Optionally add billing modifiers, then select Save and add more, or Save to finish.

Edit or delete a billing entry

Select Billing on the patient, then select the billing entry.
To change it, select Update billing, edit any field, and save.
To remove it, select Delete billing and confirm.

Billing modifiers and starred codes

In a billing entry, select Select billing modifiers, then search and select one or more modifiers; remove a modifier with its minus icon.
Star a code or modifier to add it to your favorites; starred items appear first the next time you open the catalogue.

RAMQ billing is available only to physicians set up to bill in Quebec.

The unit and start date are required on every billing entry; FrontRx does not infer them.

Certain codes require a referring doctor before they can be saved.
