Sequelae of central nervous system tuberculosis

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

Long-term complications or residual effects of tuberculosis that previously affected the brain and spinal cord.

Coding Tips

  • This code indicates a history of CNS tuberculosis with current sequelae; document the specific residual condition (e.g., hydrocephalus, paralysis)
  • Sequelae codes are used when the acute infection has resolved but complications persist; ensure the active TB infection is not still present
