What This Code Means
H02.861 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for hypertrichosis of right upper eyelid. Excessive hair growth on the upper eyelid of the right eye, which may be congenital or acquired due to hormonal changes or inflammation. H02.861 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).
H02.861 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.
Distinguish between hypertrichosis (excessive hair growth) and other eyelid conditions like ptosis or dermatitis.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H02.861 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Distinguish between hypertrichosis (excessive hair growth) and other eyelid conditions like ptosis or dermatitis
