Basal cell carcinoma of skin of right upper eyelid, including canthus

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

What This Code Means

A type of skin cancer (basal cell carcinoma) that develops on the right upper eyelid or the corner of the right eye.

Coding Tips

  • •This code specifies both laterality (right) and location (upper eyelid), so ensure documentation clearly indicates both
  • •The canthus (corner of the eye) is included in this code, so no additional code is needed for that location
