BillableResidual hemorrhoidal skin tags
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Residual hemorrhoidal skin tags are leftover folds of skin that remain after hemorrhoids have resolved, typically located at the anal opening.
Coding Tips
- •These are not active hemorrhoids but rather cosmetic or symptomatic remnants; confirm they are skin tags and not thrombosed hemorrhoids
- •Document whether skin tags are causing symptoms like itching or difficulty with hygiene
