Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Use this code only when the documentation does not specify the cause of muscle entrapment (such as trauma, surgery, or orbital fracture); if a specific cause is documented, use a more specific code
This is a laterality-specific code for the left eye; ensure you have the correct eye documented and use H50.681 for the right eye or H50.683 for bilateral involvement

Last updated: FY2026 ICD-10-CM Apr update, Apr 1, 2026 through Sep 30, 2026. CMS-HCC V28 is 100% phased in for payment year 2026.

Is H50.682 an HCC code?

No. H50.682 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

H50.682 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for extraocular muscle entrapment, unspecified, left eye. This condition occurs when one or more of the muscles that control eye movement become trapped or stuck, preventing normal eye motion in the left eye. The specific cause of the entrapment is not identified in this code. H50.682 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).

H50.682 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 the documentation does not specify the cause of muscle entrapment (such as trauma, surgery, or orbital fracture); if a specific cause is documented, use a more specific code.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H50.682 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 the documentation does not specify the cause of muscle entrapment (such as trauma, surgery, or orbital fracture); if a specific cause is documented, use a more specific code
  • This is a laterality-specific code for the left eye; ensure you have the correct eye documented and use H50.681 for the right eye or H50.683 for bilateral involvement
