E88.11

Billable

Partial lipodystrophy

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

What This Code Means

Loss of fatty tissue in some areas of the body while other areas retain normal fat distribution.

Coding Tips

  • •Document which body regions are affected (face, trunk, extremities) to support medical necessity
  • •Distinguish from generalized lipodystrophy; partial form typically spares some body areas
