Dental Service not eligible for Telemedicine

What TM7 means

The Ministry of Health’s official wording for TM7 is: “Dental Service not eligible for Telemedicine.”

This code appears on your Claims Error Report (downloaded through MCEDT). It means the claim was rejected at submission and was never adjudicated for payment — fix the issue below and resubmit the claim.

How to fix TM7

Dental services aren't eligible for telemedicine - bill it through the appropriate program instead.

Program-specific codes come from claims routed through special programs — Reciprocal Medical Billing for out-of-province patients, WSIB, telemedicine/virtual care, and Integrated Community Health Services Centres. The fix depends on that program's own submission rules.
