Recurrent dislocation, unspecified 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 hand repeatedly dislocate (pop out of place) on an unspecified side, typically affecting fingers or hand bones due to previous injury or structural problems.

Coding Tips

  • •Use only when laterality cannot be determined; query provider to clarify if right or left hand is affected
  • •Hand dislocations are often work-related or sports-related; document mechanism of injury if available
