H90.A22

Billable

Sensorineural hearing loss, unilateral, left ear, with restricted 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

Sensorineural hearing loss in the left ear only, with the right ear also having some degree of hearing loss or restriction.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify audiometric testing confirms sensorineural etiology rather than conductive or mixed
  • •The contralateral ear must have documented hearing restriction to use this code variant
