Is H43.313 an HCC code?

No. H43.313 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to any HCC category in V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC.

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

What This Code Means

H43.313 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for vitreous membranes and strands, bilateral. Thin membranes or string-like strands that form in the clear gel of both eyes, which may cause floaters or vision obstruction. H43.313 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the eye and adnexa (h00-h59), within the section covering disorders of vitreous body and globe (h43-h44).

H43.313 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.

Use this code only when bilateral involvement is explicitly documented; unilateral cases require H43.311 or H43.312.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H43.313 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Use this code only when bilateral involvement is explicitly documented; unilateral cases require H43.311 or H43.312
  • Bilateral presentation may suggest systemic or inflammatory etiology; document any associated conditions
