Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Verify the laterality (right vs. left) and location (upper vs. lower eyelid) are clearly documented in the medical record before assigning this code
Use this code only when the inflammation doesn't meet criteria for more specific conditions like blepharitis, dermatitis, or chalazion; review documentation to ensure a more specific diagnosis code isn't available

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

What This Code Means

H01.82 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other specified inflammation of right lower eyelid. This code describes inflammation of the right lower eyelid that doesn't fit into other standard categories. It's used when a patient has swelling, redness, or irritation of the lower eyelid on the right side that has a specific cause the doctor wants to document. H01.82 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the eye and adnexa (h00-h59), within the section covering disorders of eyelid, lacrimal system and orbit (h00-h05).

H01.82 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

Verify the laterality (right vs. left) and location (upper vs. lower eyelid) are clearly documented in the medical record before assigning this code.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H01.82 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Verify the laterality (right vs. left) and location (upper vs. lower eyelid) are clearly documented in the medical record before assigning this code
  • Use this code only when the inflammation doesn't meet criteria for more specific conditions like blepharitis, dermatitis, or chalazion; review documentation to ensure a more specific diagnosis code isn't available
