Recurrent dislocation, left hand

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

What This Code Means

A condition where joints in the left hand repeatedly dislocate (pop out of place), typically affecting fingers or hand bones due to previous injury or structural problems.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm left hand is specified; consider if specific finger joints are involved, which may require more detailed coding
  • •Hand dislocations are often work-related or sports-related; document mechanism of injury if available
