Legal Blindness Coding

Feb 28, 2018 | Optometry HQ Announcements

Please review this important message from Drs. Ballinger and Joy regarding coding for Legal Blindness that may have significant impact on future VERA allocations at your VA medical facility:
When coding for Legal Blindness, you will need to type H54.8 in an active note and then add it to the problem list as the correct ICD-10 code.
If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Ballinger for additional assistance.
