H59.34Postprocedural hematoma of eye and adnexa following other procedure

H59.34 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for postprocedural hematoma of eye and adnexa following other procedure. It belongs to category H59 (intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of eye and adnexa, not elsewhere classified), block H59 (intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of eye and adnexa, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 7 (diseases of the eye and adnexa). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within H59.3, choose H59.34 (hematoma of eye and adnexa following other procedure) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: hemorrhage of eye and adnexa following an ophthalmic procedure (H59.31), hemorrhage of eye and adnexa following other procedure (H59.32), hematoma of eye and adnexa following an ophthalmic procedure (H59.33), seroma of eye and adnexa following an ophthalmic procedure (H59.35) and seroma of eye and adnexa following other procedure (H59.36).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: H59.341 (procedure), H59.342 (procedure), H59.343 (bilateral) and H59.349 (procedure).

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
