Is H02.823 an HCC code?
No. H02.823 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
H02.823 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for cysts of right eye, unspecified eyelid. A fluid-filled sac or bump that has formed on the right eyelid, but the specific type or exact location on the eyelid has not been identified. These cysts are usually benign and may cause mild irritation or cosmetic concerns. H02.823 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).
H02.823 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 whether the cyst location is truly unspecified; if the provider documents a specific eyelid location (upper vs. lower), use a more specific code (H02.821 for upper or H02.822 for lower).

Coding Tips
- •Verify whether the cyst location is truly unspecified; if the provider documents a specific eyelid location (upper vs. lower), use a more specific code (H02.821 for upper or H02.822 for lower)
- •This code requires laterality (right eye specified); ensure documentation confirms right eye involvement and not bilateral or left eye involvement
