Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Verify the procedure documentation to confirm the hematoma is postprocedural and directly related to a recent ophthalmic procedure; this code requires documentation of both the complication and the causative procedure
Use the 7th character extension to indicate the episode of care (A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter, S for sequela) to properly track the timing of this postoperative complication

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.

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

What This Code Means

H59.332 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for postprocedural hematoma of left eye and adnexa following an ophthalmic procedure. A collection of blood that accumulates in or around the left eye as a complication after eye surgery or another eye procedure. This bleeding typically occurs during the healing process following the procedure. H59.332 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the eye and adnexa (h00-h59), within the section covering intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of eye and adnexa, not elsewhere classified (h59).

H59.332 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 the procedure documentation to confirm the hematoma is postprocedural and directly related to a recent ophthalmic procedure; this code requires documentation of both the complication and the causative procedure.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for H59.332 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Verify the procedure documentation to confirm the hematoma is postprocedural and directly related to a recent ophthalmic procedure; this code requires documentation of both the complication and the causative procedure
  • Use the 7th character extension to indicate the episode of care (A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter, S for sequela) to properly track the timing of this postoperative complication
