A60.02
BillableHerpesviral infection of other male genital organs
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
This code describes a herpes simplex virus infection affecting male genital organs other than the penis, such as the scrotum, testes, or prostate. It's a sexually transmitted infection caused by HSV-1 or HSV-2 that causes painful blisters and sores in these areas.
Coding Tips
- •Verify the specific anatomical site of the herpesviral infection is documented as something other than the penis (penile shaft) to use this code rather than A60.01
- •Ensure documentation specifies herpesviral infection (HSV) and confirm whether it's a primary infection or recurrent episode, as this may affect clinical management and coding specificity
