What This Code Means
H50.679 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for superior rectus muscle entrapment, unspecified eye. The superior rectus muscle is trapped or restricted, but the specific eye is not identified or documented. H50.679 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).
H50.679 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.
This is a less specific code; attempt to determine laterality from imaging or clinical documentation.
