Is D26.0 an HCC code?
No. D26.0 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to any HCC category in V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC.
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
D26.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other benign neoplasm of cervix uteri. A noncancerous growth or tumor of the cervix, the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. D26.0 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for neoplasms (c00-d49), within the section covering benign neoplasms, except benign neuroendocrine tumors (d10-d36).
D26.0 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.
Ensure this is confirmed as benign; cervical lesions require careful documentation to rule out malignancy.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for D26.0 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Ensure this is confirmed as benign; cervical lesions require careful documentation to rule out malignancy
- •Distinguish from cervical polyps or other benign cervical conditions
