Gonococcal infection of eye, unspecified

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A bacterial infection of the eye caused by gonorrhea (a sexually transmitted infection), where the specific part of the eye affected is not documented. This infection can cause redness, discharge, and vision problems if left untreated.

Coding Tips

  • •Query the provider if documentation specifies which eye structure is affected (conjunctiva, cornea, etc.) as more specific codes (A54.31-A54.39) may be more accurate
  • •Ensure documentation clarifies laterality (right eye, left eye, or bilateral) as this may affect code selection and billing
