Other non-diabetic proliferative retinopathy, left eye

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

What This Code Means

Abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina of the left eye that is not caused by diabetes, which can lead to vision problems.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify the laterality is specifically documented as left eye to distinguish from bilateral or right eye codes
  • •Ensure this is confirmed as non-diabetic; if diabetic retinopathy is present, use the E11-E13 category codes instead
