Billable

Retinal detachment with single break, bilateral

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

What This Code Means

The retina has separated from the back of both eyes, each due to a single tear or break in the retinal tissue.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when retinal detachment with single break is documented in both eyes
  • •Bilateral codes are less common; ensure documentation clearly supports involvement of both eyes
