M24.331
BillablePathological dislocation of right wrist, not elsewhere classified
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
The right wrist joint has become dislocated due to disease or structural problems rather than an injury.
Coding Tips
- •Wrist dislocations are less common than shoulder/elbow; ensure diagnosis is well-documented
- •Consider associated carpal bone involvement and document specific carpal bones if applicable
