H26.123

Billable

Partially resolved traumatic cataract, bilateral

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

What This Code Means

A clouding of the lens in both eyes that resulted from an eye injury and has partially improved but not completely resolved.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify documentation confirms the cataract is traumatic in origin and specifies bilateral involvement
  • •Ensure the 'partially resolved' status is documented; if fully resolved, use a different code
