H81.393

Billable

Other peripheral vertigo, bilateral

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

What This Code Means

A spinning sensation or dizziness caused by problems in the balance organs of both ears, affecting the peripheral vestibular system.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify documentation specifies bilateral involvement; if only one ear is affected, use H81.391 or H81.392 instead
  • •Distinguish from central vertigo (H81.4) by confirming the cause is peripheral, not brain-related
