Lead-induced gout, unspecified site

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

What This Code Means

Gout caused by lead exposure or lead toxicity affecting an unspecified joint or body site.

Coding Tips

  • •This is secondary gout caused by lead; document evidence of lead exposure in the patient's history
  • •If a specific site is documented, use a more specific code (M10.11-M10.19) rather than the unspecified code
