Is H02.205 an HCC code?

No. H02.205 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to any HCC category in V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC.

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

What This Code Means

H02.205 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified lagophthalmos left lower eyelid. Inability of the left lower eyelid to close completely, which may result in corneal exposure and discomfort. H02.205 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).

H02.205 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.

Ensure documentation clearly indicates the left eye and lower eyelid involvement.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H02.205 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Ensure documentation clearly indicates the left eye and lower eyelid involvement
  • Review for any documented complications such as keratitis or corneal ulceration that should be coded separately
