What This Code Means

D86.9 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for sarcoidosis, unspecified. Sarcoidosis without specification of which organs or body systems are affected; a general diagnosis of this inflammatory disease. D86.9 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 certain disorders involving the immune mechanism (d80-d89).

D86.9 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 only when the specific sites of sarcoidosis involvement are not documented or known.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for D86.9 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
