H30.819
BillableHarada's disease, unspecified eye
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Harada's disease is a rare inflammatory condition that affects the eye and causes swelling of the uvea (the middle layer of the eye), leading to vision problems and eye pain. This code indicates the condition is present but the specific eye affected is not documented.
Coding Tips
- •Always attempt to determine laterality (right eye, left eye, or bilateral) from clinical documentation to use more specific codes (H30.811 for right eye, H30.812 for left eye, H30.813 for bilateral) rather than the unspecified code
- •Harada's disease is often associated with systemic symptoms; review documentation for concurrent conditions like meningitis or hearing loss that may require additional coding
