Other specified crystal arthropathies, right wrist

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

What This Code Means

A joint condition in the right wrist caused by crystal deposits (such as calcium pyrophosphate or other mineral crystals) that are not gout or pseudogout, causing inflammation and discomfort.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm the crystal type is documented to ensure this 'other specified' code is appropriate rather than a more specific crystal arthropathy code
  • •Verify right wrist is the correct anatomical site as documented in the clinical record
