Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Document the specific clotting factor that is deficient, the measured factor activity level, and whether the deficiency is homozygous or heterozygous.
Record bleeding history, family history consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance, and treatment used for bleeding episodes or prophylaxis.

MEAT Support

HCC Buddy guidance
Document the specific clotting factor that is deficient, the measured factor activity level, and whether the deficiency is homozygous or heterozygous.
Record bleeding history, family history consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance, and treatment used for bleeding episodes or prophylaxis.

Audit Caution

HCC Buddy guidance
Factor XII deficiency prolongs PTT but does not cause clinical bleeding — do not assign a bleeding disorder code without clinical significance.
Each rare factor deficiency has unique treatment requirements (factor VII concentrate, PCC, FFP) so documenting the specific factor is essential even though the code is the same.
Verify hereditary versus acquired etiology.

Common Mistakes

HCC Buddy guidance
D66 (Factor VIII deficiency) and D67 (Factor IX deficiency) — have their own specific codes and should not be coded here
D68.1 (Factor XI deficiency) — also has its own specific code
D68.4 (Acquired coagulation factor deficiency) — acquired rather than hereditary.

Is D68.2 an HCC code?

Yes. D68.2 (Hereditary deficiency of other clotting factors) maps to Immune Thrombocytopenia and Specified Coagulation Defects and Hemorrhagic Conditions under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model (and Coagulation Defects and Other Specified Hematological Disorders under V24), with a community non-dual aged RAF of 0.450. It is billable for payment year 2026.

Coder answer: D68.2 is billable and maps to V28 HCC 112, Immune Thrombocytopenia and Specified Coagulation Defects and Hemorrhagic Conditions. Open it in the Code Book for the tabular path, RAF, and MEAT checklist.

Each model's RAF is its CMS base weight for that model's standard population, so 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 segment, interactions, and the model year used by the payer. V28 is the CMS-HCC model phased in over payment years 2024–2026; V24 remains in use during the transition and for historical data.

MEAT Criteria for D68.2

For D68.2 to count as a valid HCC diagnosis in a given encounter, the provider's documentation must show MEAT: Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat. A diagnosis from a prior year does not carry forward automatically, it has to be re-documented and supported each calendar year.

  • 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

Only one of M/E/A/T is required to support the code, but the documentation must be specific enough to show that the provider actually addressed D68.2 during that encounter, not just copy-forwarded from a problem list.

What This Code Means

D68.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for hereditary deficiency of other clotting factors. An inherited bleeding disorder caused by deficiency of clotting factors other than factor VIII or IX (such as factors II, V, VII, X, XI, XII, or XIII). D68.2 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism (d50-d89), within the section covering coagulation defects, purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions (d65-d69).

Under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, D68.2 maps to Immune Thrombocytopenia and Specified Coagulation Defects and Hemorrhagic Conditions (HCC 112) with a community, non-dual, aged base RAF weight of 0.450. Under the older CMS-HCC V24 model, D68.2 maps to Coagulation Defects and Other Specified Hematological Disorders (HCC 48) with a community, non-dual, aged base RAF weight of 0.192. V28 is the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model that reached 100% phase-in for payment year 2026, replacing V24 which was used during the PY2024–PY2025 transition.

Identify which specific clotting factor is deficient in the documentation to ensure accurate coding. Because D68.2 maps to a payment HCC, the provider's documentation must satisfy MEAT criteria (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) for the encounter to count toward the patient's Medicare Advantage risk adjustment score. 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, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for D68.2 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Identify which specific clotting factor is deficient in the documentation to ensure accurate coding
  • If a more specific code exists for the particular factor deficiency, use that instead of this general code

Clinical Significance

This code captures hereditary deficiencies of clotting factors other than VIII, IX, and XI, including rare conditions such as factor II (prothrombin), factor V, factor VII, factor X, factor XII, and factor XIII deficiencies. These are extremely rare autosomal recessive disorders, each with distinct bleeding phenotypes. Factor XII deficiency notably does not cause clinical bleeding despite prolonging the PTT.

Documentation Requirements

  • Document the specific clotting factor that is deficient, the measured factor activity level, and whether the deficiency is homozygous or heterozygous.
  • Record bleeding history, family history consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance, and treatment used for bleeding episodes or prophylaxis.

Commonly Confused Codes

  • D66 (Factor VIII deficiency) and D67 (Factor IX deficiency): have their own specific codes and should not be coded here
  • D68.1 (Factor XI deficiency): also has its own specific code
  • D68.4 (Acquired coagulation factor deficiency): acquired rather than hereditary.

Child Codes

Code Hierarchy

Because D68.2 maps to a payment HCC, the documentation must also satisfy MEAT criteria (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) for the encounter to count toward the patient's risk adjustment score.

D68.2 maps to CMS-HCC V28 category 112, Immune Thrombocytopenia and Specified Coagulation Defects and Hemorrhagic Conditions. See the ICD-10 to HCC mapping hub for how the V28 crosswalk works. Because D68.2 carries a payment HCC, you can see what it adds to a RAF score and check the documentation the chart needs before it is submitted.
