What This Code Means

E66.09 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other obesity due to excess calories. Obesity caused by excess calorie intake that does not meet the criteria for morbid obesity. E66.09 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (e00-e89), within the section covering overweight, obesity and other hyperalimentation (e65-e68).

E66.09 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.

Use this code for non-morbid obesity due to excess calories.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for E66.09 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
