What This Code Means

B42.7 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for disseminated sporotrichosis. A widespread fungal infection caused by Sporothrix that has spread throughout the body beyond the initial infection site. B42.7 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for certain infectious and parasitic diseases (a00-b99), within the section covering mycoses (b35-b49).

B42.7 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

Disseminated sporotrichosis indicates systemic spread; document the extent and organs involved for complete clinical picture.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for B42.7 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Disseminated sporotrichosis indicates systemic spread; document the extent and organs involved for complete clinical picture
  • Verify if this is primary disseminated or secondary to untreated localized sporotrichosis
