J34.8201

Billable

Internal nasal valve collapse, static

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

What This Code Means

Collapse of the internal nasal valve that occurs at rest or is present regardless of breathing effort.

Coding Tips

  • •Static collapse means the narrowing is present continuously and not dependent on airflow dynamics
  • •Distinguish from dynamic collapse (J34.8202) by reviewing whether symptoms worsen specifically during inspiration or breathing
