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

What This Code Means

Problems with the visual pathways (nerves and structures that carry vision signals) on the left side of the brain caused by inflammation.

  • •Confirm laterality is documented as left side; if not specified, use the unspecified code H47.519
  • •Link this code to the underlying inflammatory condition (e.g., optic neuritis, demyelinating disease)
