H35.2: Other non-diabetic proliferative retinopathy

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

H35.2 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other non-diabetic proliferative retinopathy. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1: never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

proliferative vitreo-retinopathy with retinal detachment (H33.4-)

Excludes2: not included here, but may coexist

The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.

proliferative sickle-cell retinopathy (H36.82-)

Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

Proliferative vitreo-retinopathy
Thalassemia proliferative retinopathy

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above H35.2

Not part of this code, but both may be coded when both are present.
