The chart includes (direct) costs. These amounts are what the doctor bills OHIP for, but there are other costs associated with abortions.
The numbers are broken down by Hospital (18,491 abortions) and Clinic/Physician Office (27,082 abortions).
Notes from the table:
1) The figures provided are limited to
the fee codes for abortions in Ontario for fiscal year 2014-2015
based on the following codes:
a. A920A - MEDICAL MANAGEMENT OF EARLY
PREGNANCY - INITIAL VISIT
b. P001A - MEDICAL MGMT FETAL DEMISE
BETWEEN 14-20 WKS GESTATION
c. S752A - FEM.GENITAL
SYST.-INDUCED-CURRETINTRA-AMNIOTIC INJ.(COMP.)
d. S785A - FEM.GENITAL
SYST.-INDUCED-INTRA-AMNIOTIC INJ. (INCOMP.)
e. P054A - FETAL
MANAGEMENT-SGL/MULT-INTRACARDIAC KCL INJECTION
f. S770A - CORPUS UTERI-HYSTEROTOMY.
g. S783A - CORPUS UTERI-HYSTEROTOMY
WITH TUBAL INTERRUPTION.
Note: S770A and S783A may be claimed
for purposes other than Therapeutic Abortion
2) 2014 Abortion Number of Services
based on the list of codes above = 45,573
(Note that I originally reported 45,471 abortion which is the number the Ministry gave me in court. I assumed the difference (102) must be because of codes S770A and S783A as noted above, but when you look at the chart, there were only a total of 24 procedures done under these two codes, so that's not it. I will try and get an answer from the Ministry of Health--no easy task.)
3) 2014 Abortion Fee Billed based on
the list of codes above = $5,690,931.99
4) Service Location - Hospital
Services: report the services that based on the claims submission
were rendered in a hospital setting.
5) Service Location - Physician Office
(PHY): report the that based on the claim submissions were rendered
in non-hospital settings (Clinics/Physician offices)
