Other specific joint derangements of right hip, not elsewhere classified

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

What This Code Means

A structural problem or abnormality in the right hip joint that doesn't fit into other specific categories, such as cartilage damage, loose bodies, or joint instability.

Coding Tips

  • •Ensure the condition is truly a joint derangement and not osteoarthritis (M16-M17) or other hip conditions
  • •Document the specific nature of the derangement for clinical accuracy
