Recurrent dislocation, left ankle

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

What This Code Means

The left ankle repeatedly dislocates or comes out of its socket, often due to previous injury or joint instability.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify laterality is documented as left ankle in the medical record before assigning this code
  • •Distinguish from initial dislocation (S93.0-) by confirming the dislocation is recurrent/habitual
