M24.432
BillableRecurrent dislocation, left wrist
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
A condition where the left wrist joint repeatedly dislocates (pops out of place), often due to previous injury, ligament damage, or joint instability.
Coding Tips
- •Confirm left side is documented; wrist dislocations are less common than shoulder/elbow, so verify diagnosis accuracy
- •Document any associated carpal bone involvement or ligament injuries that may require additional coding
