What This Code Means
L87.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for keratosis follicularis et parafollicularis in cutem penetrans. A rare skin condition where keratin-filled bumps penetrate through the skin surface, often appearing as small, firm papules. L87.0 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue (l00-l99), within the section covering other disorders of the skin and subcutaneous tissue (l80-l99).
L87.0 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.
This is a rare condition; ensure diagnosis is clearly documented by the provider.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for L87.0 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
