Is H50.672 an HCC code?

No. H50.672 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

H50.672 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for superior rectus muscle entrapment, left eye. The superior rectus muscle in the left eye is trapped or restricted, limiting the eye's upward movement. H50.672 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the eye and adnexa (h00-h59), within the section covering disorders of ocular muscles, binocular movement, accommodation and refraction (h49-h52).

H50.672 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 left eye laterality is clearly documented in the clinical notes.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H50.672 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Verify left eye laterality is clearly documented in the clinical notes
  • Distinguish from right eye entrapment (H50.671) and unspecified eye (H50.679)
