Recurrent dislocation, right knee

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

What This Code Means

A condition where the right knee joint repeatedly dislocates (comes out of alignment) on its own, often due to ligament damage or previous injury.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm right knee is documented; recurrent knee dislocation often requires surgical intervention
  • •Consider if associated ligament injuries (ACL, PCL) are documented and should be coded separately
