What it is

This code identifies bilateral inflammatory disease involving the choroid and retina at the posterior pole. It indicates a disseminated pattern affecting both eyes, not a localized lesion.

Clinical signs

Findings may include bilateral posterior pole chorioretinal inflammatory lesions, blurred vision, and reduced visual acuity. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents disseminated chorioretinal inflammation of the posterior pole in both eyes. Apply it only when the record clearly supports bilateral involvement and the posterior pole location. If laterality or anatomic site is unclear, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use it for unilateral disease, a different retinal or choroidal disorder, or nonspecific posterior uveitis without this exact diagnosis. Check documentation if the note does not specify disseminated chorioretinal inflammation.

Coding tip

Confirm both laterality and the posterior pole location in the provider note before assigning H30.113.
