What This Code Means
D29.32 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for benign neoplasm of left epididymis. A non-cancerous tumor that develops in the left epididymis, the tube that stores and transports sperm from the left testicle. D29.32 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for neoplasms (c00-d49), within the section covering benign neoplasms, except benign neuroendocrine tumors (d10-d36).
D29.32 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.
Verify left-sided location is clearly documented before assigning this code.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for D29.32 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Verify left-sided location is clearly documented before assigning this code
- •If the patient has tumors on both sides, code both D29.31 and D29.32 separately
