Overview OPS code search
OPS (operation and procedure) codes are used to classify various tests and treatments. They provide an important basis for the billing of medical services. The OPS codes are revised annually and are organized into the chapters mentioned below. Chapters 2, 4 and 7 were in an original version published by the World Health Organization (WHO) but are not used in the German healthcare system.
Please select the chapter for the OPS code you are looking for:
