Pathological dislocation of unspecified hand, not elsewhere classified

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

What This Code Means

A condition where a hand joint becomes dislocated due to underlying disease or structural weakness, but the specific hand (right or left) is not identified.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when hand laterality cannot be determined; query provider if documentation is unclear
  • •This is a less specific code; M24.341 or M24.342 should be used when side is documented
