Is C83.58 an HCC code?
Yes. C83.58 (Lymphoblastic (diffuse) lymphoma, lymph nodes of multiple sites) maps to HCC 20, Lung and Other Severe Cancers under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, with a source-labeled community non-dual aged reference coefficient of 1.136. Source-labeled code-level coefficients are references, not member totals. Actual contribution depends on complete member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and model year. HCC Buddy's RAF Calculator supports CMS-HCC V28 PY2026 and shows no score unless every required source and calculation check passes. It is billable for payment year 2026.
Coder answer: C83.58 is billable and maps to V28 HCC 20, Lung and Other Severe Cancers. Open it in the Code Book for the tabular path, RAF, and MEAT checklist.

HCC Category Mapping
These are source-labeled model coefficients, not member totals. A category may still be removed by hierarchy or model cleanup rules. Weights are not directly comparable across models: CMS-HCC V28 and V24 use Community, Non-Dual, Aged; ESRD uses the dialysis continuing-enrollee model; RxHCC is the Part D continuing-enrollee, non-low-income, aged weight (a larger scale than CMS-HCC). ACA/HHS has no single weight — it varies by metal level. Actual per-patient RAF contribution depends on member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and the model year used by the payer. V28 is the CMS-HCC model phased in over payment years 2024–2026; V24 remains available for historical review.

MEAT review for C83.58
For C83.58, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule.
- MMonitor: signs, symptoms, disease progression, or lab trending documented in the note
- EEvaluate: test results, medication response, or physical findings reviewed by the provider
- AAssess: explicit mention in the assessment or plan with acknowledgment of status
- TTreat: medication, referral, procedure, therapy, or counseling tied to the diagnosis

What This Code Means
C83.58 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for lymphoblastic (diffuse) lymphoma, lymph nodes of multiple sites. A type of blood cancer affecting immature lymphoid cells that involves lymph nodes in multiple different locations throughout the body. C83.58 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for neoplasms (c00-d49), within the section covering malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue (c81-c96).
Under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, C83.58 maps to Lung and Other Severe Cancers (HCC 20) with a source-labeled community, non-dual, aged reference coefficient of 1.136. For CY2026 non-PACE Medicare Advantage, CMS uses 100% of the 2024 CMS-HCC model (V28). PACE uses a separate model blend. Source-labeled code-level coefficients are references, not member totals. Actual contribution depends on complete member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and model year. HCC Buddy's RAF Calculator supports CMS-HCC V28 PY2026 and shows no score unless every required source and calculation check passes.
Use this code only when documentation clearly indicates involvement of lymph nodes at two or more separate anatomical sites. For C83.58, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule. When documentation is ambiguous, coders should issue a provider query rather than assume the highest-specificity variant.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for C83.58 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code only when documentation clearly indicates involvement of lymph nodes at two or more separate anatomical sites
- •Do not use if only one site is involved; select the specific site code instead
Clinical Significance
Lymphoblastic lymphoma involving multiple lymph node sites indicates advanced, disseminated disease which is the typical presentation for this aggressive lymphoma. Multi-site involvement necessitates intensive ALL-type chemotherapy regimens and carries prognostic implications. Complete staging is essential to document all involved regions.
Documentation Requirements
- ✓Pathology-confirmed lymphoblastic lymphoma with lineage determination
- ✓Documentation of at least two distinct lymph node regions involved
- ✓PET/CT or CT staging documenting all involved sites
- ✓Bone marrow biopsy results
- ✓CNS evaluation (lumbar puncture with CSF analysis)
Commonly Confused Codes
- •C83.50: Lymphoblastic lymphoma, unspecified; use C83.58 when multiple specific sites are documented
- •C83.59: Extranodal/solid organ sites; C83.58 is for multiple nodal sites, not organ involvement
- •C91.00: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia; bone marrow blasts >25% designates leukemia
- •C83.38: DLBCL, multiple sites; different, mature B-cell lymphoma
