What This Code Means

Z87.720 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for personal history of (corrected) congenital malformations of eye. A patient who was born with an eye birth defect (such as cataracts or retinal abnormalities) that has been surgically corrected or resolved. Z87.720 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for factors influencing health status and contact with health services (z00-z99), within the section covering persons with potential health hazards related to family and personal history and certain conditions influencing health status (z77-z99).

Z87.720 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

This code indicates the eye condition originated at birth and has been corrected.
