What This Code Means

D40.8 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified male genital organs. A growth in other male reproductive organs (such as the epididymis or seminal vesicles) that has uncertain malignant potential and requires further investigation. D40.8 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for neoplasms (c00-d49), within the section covering neoplasms of uncertain behavior, polycythemia vera and myelodysplastic syndromes (d37-d48).

D40.8 is a billable ICD-10-CM code, but the current payload does not show a mapping under the CMS-HCC V28 or V24 community payment models, and none under the ESRD, Part D RxHCC, or HHS-HCC models. Do not assign risk adjustment value from this page when no source-backed mapping is shown; verify the applicable model and payment year.

Use this code only when the specific male genital organ is documented but does not fit D40.0-D40.1 categories.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for D40.8 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 the specific male genital organ is documented but does not fit D40.0-D40.1 categories
  • Document the exact anatomical location in the medical record for clarity and potential future recoding
