Mix cndct/snrl hear loss,uni,r ear,w unrestr hear cntra side

This code signifies a hearing impairment affecting the right ear, characterized by a combination of conductive and sensorineural components. The patient experiences normal hearing in the left ear. This condition indicates issues in both the outer/middle ear (conductive) and the inner ear/auditory nerve (sensorineural) on the specified side.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a diagnosis of mixed hearing loss specifically in the right ear, with the left ear noted as having unrestricted or normal hearing. Supporting documentation should include audiometry results showing both air-bone gaps and elevated bone conduction thresholds in the right ear, alongside normal audiometric findings for the left ear.

• Ensure laterality is explicitly documented as "right ear" and that the contralateral ear is specified as "unrestricted" or "normal hearing."
• Do not use this code if the hearing loss is bilateral, or if the left ear also has some degree of impairment.
• Distinguish carefully from purely conductive (H90.0-H90.2) or purely sensorineural (H90.3-H90.6) hearing loss.
