Billable

Tarsal tunnel syndrome, bilateral lower limbs

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

Compression of the posterior tibial nerve in both ankles (tarsal tunnel), causing pain, numbness, or tingling in both feet and soles.

Coding Tips

  • •Bilateral tarsal tunnel syndrome is less common; ensure both sides are explicitly documented before coding
  • •Investigate for underlying causes such as flat feet, ankle swelling, or systemic conditions
