H90.6
BillableMixed conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, bilateral
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
A condition where both ears have combined hearing loss from both conductive problems (sound transmission issues) and sensorineural problems (inner ear or nerve damage).
Coding Tips
- •This code is used only when both ears are affected with mixed-type hearing loss; verify bilateral involvement in documentation
- •Do not use this code if hearing loss is unilateral or if only one type of hearing loss is present
