BillableXeroderma of unspecified eye, unspecified eyelid
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Abnormal dryness and scaling of the skin on an eyelid when neither the affected eye nor the specific eyelid location can be determined.
Coding Tips
- •This is the least specific xeroderma code; use only when laterality and eyelid location are truly unspecified
- •Query documentation to determine if eye and eyelid specificity can be established for more precise coding
