Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.POA Exempt Code
The Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requires medical coders to indicate whether or not a condition was present at the time of admission, in order to properly assign MS-DRG codes. This "Present On Admission" (POA) indicator is recorded on CMS form 4010A.Q14.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of congenital malformation of vitreous humor. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
POA Indicators on CMS form 4010A are as follows:
| Indicator | Meaning | CMS Will Pay CC/MCC DRG Costs |
|---|---|---|
| Y | Diagnosis was present at time of inpatient admission | Yes |
| N | Diagnosis was not present at time of inpatient admission | No |
| U | Documentation insufficient to determine if the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. | No |
| W | Clinically undetermined. Provider unable to clinically determine whether the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. | Yes |

The ICD code Q140 is used to code Persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous
Persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV), also known as Persistent Fetal Vasculature (PFV), is a rare congenital developmental anomaly of the eye that results following failure of the embryological, primary vitreous and hyaloid vasculature to regress. It can be present in three forms: purely anterior (persistent tunica vasculosa lentis and persistent posterior fetal fibrovascular sheath of the lens), purely posterior (falciform retinal septum and ablatio falcicormis congenita) and a combination of both. Most examples of PHPV are unilateral and non-hereditary. When bilateral, PHPV may follow an autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant inheritance pattern.
| Specialty: | Medical Genetics |
Falciform fold of detached dysplastic retina encircles the persistent hyaloid artery that extends from the optic nerve head to the retrolental mass.
