Non-Billable (Header)Hereditary and idiopathic neuropathy
Last updated: FY2026 ICD-10-CM (Oct 1, 2025 – Sep 30, 2026) | CMS-HCC V28 (100% phase-in, PY2026)
What This Code Means
G60 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for hereditary and idiopathic neuropathy. G60 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the nervous system (g00-g99), within the section covering polyneuropathies and other disorders of the peripheral nervous system (g60-g65).
Header codes like G60 cannot be reported on claims directly — they organize child codes that share clinical context but the actual diagnosis must be coded to the highest level of specificity supported by the documentation. Coders should look at G60's child codes and select the one that matches the patient's documented presentation, since payers reject header codes submitted as the primary diagnosis. For risk adjustment workflows, header codes never contribute to a Medicare Advantage member's RAF score on their own; only billable child codes that happen to map to a payment HCC affect risk-adjusted plan payments.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for G60 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
