BillableOther secondary gout, left shoulder
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Gout in the left shoulder that developed as a result of another medical condition or medication, rather than primary gout.
Coding Tips
- •Verify the underlying cause of secondary gout (such as diuretic use, renal disease, or malignancy) and code it as an additional diagnosis
- •The fifth character '2' specifically indicates left shoulder; ensure laterality is documented in the medical record
