Unilateral osteoarthritis resulting from hip dysplasia, unspecified hip

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

What This Code Means

Arthritis of one hip joint caused by abnormal hip socket development (dysplasia), but the specific hip is not documented.

Coding Tips

  • •This is a default code when dysplasia-related osteoarthritis is unilateral but laterality is not specified
  • •Attempt to determine which hip is affected to assign M16.31 or M16.32 for greater specificity
