ICD-10 code for left madarosis

The ICD-10-CM code for left madarosis is H02.726 (Madarosis of left eye, unspecified eyelid and periocular area). The official index lists 2 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on H02.726.

Within H02.72, choose H02.726 (left eye, unspecified eyelid and periocular area) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: right upper eyelid and periocular area (H02.721), right lower eyelid and periocular area (H02.722), right eye, unspecified eyelid and periocular area (H02.723), left upper eyelid and periocular area (H02.724), left lower eyelid and periocular area (H02.725) and unspecified eye, unspecified eyelid and periocular area (H02.729).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 124 (Other Disorders of the Eye with MCC or Thrombolytic Agent, relative weight 1.2471) and DRG 125 (Other Disorders of the Eye without MCC, relative weight 0.7702), 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.
