Coverage depends on the payer, service and applicable policy. A billable code does not guarantee payment.
For US diagnosis claims covered by HIPAA, ICD-10-CM is required from October 1, 2015.
Use the service date for outpatient/professional claims and the discharge date for hospital inpatient claims. Earlier encounters use ICD-9-CM; each individual code must also be valid for the applicable date.

All neoplasms, whether functionally active or not, are classified in Chapter 2. Appropriate codes in this chapter (i.e. E05.8, E07.0, E16-E31, E34.-) may be used as additional codes to indicate either functional activity by neoplasms and ectopic endocrine tissue or hyperfunction and hypofunction of endocrine glands associated with neoplasms and other conditions classified elsewhere.
One of the following 7th characters is to be assigned to codes in subcategory E08.35 to designate laterality of the disease:
1 — right eye
2 — left eye
3 — bilateral
9 — unspecified eye
Historical assignments from the CDC conversion table support data retrieval. They do not authorize substituting a previous code for the current code.
Previous assignment: E08.351
