What This Code Means

H02.539 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for eyelid retraction unspecified eye, unspecified lid. An eyelid is retracted, but neither the specific eye (right or left) nor the specific eyelid (upper or lower) is documented. H02.539 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).

H02.539 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.

This is the least specific eyelid retraction code; use only when documentation lacks detail on laterality and location.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H02.539 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
