H90.71

Billable

Mixed conductive and 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

Mixed hearing loss affecting only the right ear while the left ear has normal or unrestricted hearing ability.

Coding Tips

  • •The 'unrestricted hearing on contralateral side' means the opposite ear has normal hearing; confirm this in the clinical documentation
  • •This code specifically indicates unilateral involvement with the contralateral ear being unaffected
