Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance

Verify the specific anatomical site of the herpesviral infection is documented as something other than the penis (penile shaft) to use this code rather than A60.01

Ensure documentation specifies herpesviral infection (HSV) and confirm whether it's a primary infection or recurrent episode, as this may affect clinical management and coding specificity

Do not assign risk adjustment value from this page when no source-backed mapping is shown; verify the applicable model and payment year.

Verify the specific anatomical site of the herpesviral infection is documented as something other than the penis (penile shaft) to use this code rather than A60.01.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for A60.02 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

•Verify the specific anatomical site of the herpesviral infection is documented as something other than the penis (penile shaft) to use this code rather than A60.01
•Ensure documentation specifies herpesviral infection (HSV) and confirm whether it's a primary infection or recurrent episode, as this may affect clinical management and coding specificity
