Is H59.3 billable?

No — H59.3 is a non-billable header code. H59.3 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 24 billable codes beneath H59.3.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from H59

The conditions below can never be reported together with H59.3 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • mechanical complication of intraocular lens (T85.2)
  • mechanical complication of other ocular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T85.3)
  • pseudophakia (Z96.1)
  • secondary cataracts (H26.4-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 7

The conditions below are not part of H59.3, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, H59.3 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
  • complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
