Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.H35.729 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of serous detachment of retinal pigment epithelium, unspecified eye. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
The ICD code H357 is used to code Central serous retinopathy
Central serous retinopathy (CSR), also known as central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC or CSCR), is an eye disease which causes visual impairment, often temporary, usually in one eye. When the disorder is active it is characterized by leakage of fluid under the retina that has a propensity to accumulate under the central macula. This results in blurred or distorted vision (metamorphopsia). A blurred or gray spot in the central visual field is common when the retina is detached. Reduced visual acuity may persist after the fluid has disappeared.
