H01.01 — Ulcerative blepharitis
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
H01.01 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for ulcerative blepharitis. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.
Risk adjustment
H01.01 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
Code history
H01.01 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
