What This Code Means
I02.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for rheumatic chorea with heart involvement. A neurological complication of rheumatic fever characterized by involuntary movements and muscle weakness, occurring together with heart involvement. I02.0 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the circulatory system (i00-i99), within the section covering acute rheumatic fever (i00-i02).
I02.0 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.
Document the specific cardiac involvement separately; this code indicates chorea WITH heart disease.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for I02.0 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Document the specific cardiac involvement separately; this code indicates chorea WITH heart disease
