K64.1
BillableSecond degree hemorrhoids
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Second degree hemorrhoids are internal hemorrhoids that prolapse (protrude) during bowel movements but retract back inside on their own.
Coding Tips
- •Document that hemorrhoids prolapse during straining but spontaneously reduce; this distinguishes them from third degree
- •Confirm internal location and that manual reduction is not required
