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

Coding Tips
- •Clarify if the condition affects multiple joints in the hand, as this may require additional codes
- •Verify the crystal type is documented to confirm this 'other specified' classification is appropriate
