Noninfective disorders of pinna, left ear

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

What This Code Means

This code describes a non-infectious problem affecting the outer ear (pinna) on the left side, such as structural damage, deformity, or other conditions not caused by infection. Examples include trauma, keloids, or other benign disorders of the ear cartilage and skin.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify the condition is specifically noninfective; if infection is present, use a different code from the H61.0x series
  • •Confirm laterality is documented as left ear; use H61.191 for right ear or H61.193 for bilateral conditions
