Q62.12

Billable

Congenital occlusion of ureterovesical orifice

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

What This Code Means

A congenital blockage where the ureter meets the bladder, preventing urine from draining properly from the kidney into the bladder.

Coding Tips

  • •Ureterovesical orifice (UVO) obstruction is less common than UPJ obstruction but requires similar monitoring
  • •Distinguish from vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), which is a different condition involving backward urine flow rather than obstruction
