H90.41

Billable

Sensorineural hearing loss, unilateral, right ear, with unrestricted hearing on the contralateral side

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

What This Code Means

Hearing loss in the right ear caused by inner ear or hearing nerve damage, while the left ear has normal hearing.

Coding Tips

  • •The '41' indicates right ear involvement with unrestricted hearing on the opposite side; use H90.42 for left ear unilateral cases.
  • •Document whether the contralateral ear truly has unrestricted hearing to ensure accurate code selection.
