About H05.032

H05.032 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for periostitis of left orbit. It belongs to category H05 (disorders of orbit), block H00-H05 (disorders of eyelid, lacrimal system and orbit) and chapter 7 (diseases of the eye and adnexa). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within H05.03 (periostitis of orbit), H05.032 is specifically for periostitis of left orbit. Related codes cover right orbit (H05.031), bilateral orbits (H05.033) and unspecified orbit (H05.039).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 121 (Acute Major Eye Infections with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.2255) and DRG 122 (Acute Major Eye Infections without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7406), in MDC 02 (Diseases and Disorders of the Eye), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 376.02 (orbital periostitis).
