Deformity of orbit

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 6 more specific codes instead:

H05.30 Unspecified deformity of orbit
H05.31 Atrophy of orbit (also a header)
H05.32 Deformity of orbit due to bone disease (also a header)
H05.33 Deformity of orbit due to trauma or surgery (also a header)
H05.34 Enlargement of orbit (also a header)
H05.35 Exostosis of orbit (also a header)

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.

FY2012 Added to the draft code set draft Deformity of orbit
