A type of blood cancer (non-follicular lymphoma) that has spread to organs outside the lymph node system, such as the liver, lungs, or other solid organs.
Buddy Insight
Other non-follicular lymphoma at extranodal and solid organ sites indicates the lymphoma has spread beyond the lymph node system into solid organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, central nervous system, liver, or lungs.

Is C83.89 an HCC code?
Yes. C83.89 (Other non-follicular lymphoma, extranodal and solid organ sites) maps to HCC 21, Lymphoma and Other Cancers under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, with a source-labeled community non-dual aged reference coefficient of 0.671. 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: C83.89 is billable and maps to V28 HCC 21, Lymphoma and Other 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 C83.89
For C83.89, 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
C83.89 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other non-follicular lymphoma, extranodal and solid organ sites. A type of blood cancer (non-follicular lymphoma) that has spread to organs outside the lymph node system, such as the liver, lungs, or other solid organs. C83.89 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, C83.89 maps to Lymphoma and Other Cancers (HCC 21) with a source-labeled community, non-dual, aged reference coefficient of 0.671. No V24 mapping is shown for C83.89; use the applicable model and payment year when reviewing the V28 mapping. 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.
Identify and document the specific extranodal sites involved for treatment planning. For C83.89, 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 C83.89 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Identify and document the specific extranodal sites involved for treatment planning
- •This code indicates more advanced disease; verify staging information in medical record
Clinical Significance
Other non-follicular lymphoma at extranodal and solid organ sites indicates the lymphoma has spread beyond the lymph node system into solid organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, central nervous system, liver, or lungs. Extranodal lymphoma often presents unique diagnostic and treatment challenges, including the need for organ-specific treatment approaches. This code captures advanced disease complexity.
Documentation Requirements
- ✓Pathology confirming non-follicular lymphoma subtype
- ✓Documentation of specific extranodal organs involved
- ✓Imaging or biopsy confirming organ involvement
- ✓Staging reflecting extranodal disease
- ✓Treatment plan addressing organ-specific involvement
Commonly Confused Codes
- •C83.88: Other non-follicular lymphoma, multiple sites: C83.88 is for multiple lymph node regions; C83.89 is for non-nodal organ involvement
- •C83.87: Other non-follicular lymphoma, spleen: Splenic involvement has its own dedicated code separate from the general extranodal code
- •C78-C79 series: Secondary malignant neoplasms: Do not use metastasis codes for lymphoma organ involvement; lymphoma is a systemic disease coded with its primary code
