What This Code Means
F65.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pedophilia. A psychiatric disorder involving sexual interest in prepubescent children, with or without acting on these urges. F65.4 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for mental, behavioral and neurodevelopmental disorders (f01-f99), within the section covering disorders of adult personality and behavior (f60-f69).
F65.4 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.
This is a serious diagnosis requiring careful documentation and often mandatory reporting obligations.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for F65.4 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
