Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Verify laterality is documented as left eye; if bilateral ruptures exist, code both H31.321 (right eye) and H31.322 (left eye) separately
Investigate the cause of rupture and code any associated eye trauma or injury codes (S05 series) as secondary diagnoses if applicable

Last updated: FY2026 ICD-10-CM Apr update, Apr 1, 2026 through Sep 30, 2026. CMS-HCC V28 is 100% phased in for payment year 2026.

What This Code Means

H31.322 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for choroidal rupture, left eye. A choroidal rupture in the left eye is a break or tear in the choroid, which is the layer of blood vessels beneath the retina that supplies oxygen and nutrients to the eye. This condition typically results from trauma or injury to the eye. H31.322 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the eye and adnexa (h00-h59), within the section covering disorders of choroid and retina (h30-h36).

H31.322 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 laterality is documented as left eye; if bilateral ruptures exist, code both H31.321 (right eye) and H31.322 (left eye) separately.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H31.322 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Verify laterality is documented as left eye; if bilateral ruptures exist, code both H31.321 (right eye) and H31.322 (left eye) separately
  • Investigate the cause of rupture and code any associated eye trauma or injury codes (S05 series) as secondary diagnoses if applicable
