Stiffness of other specified joint, not elsewhere classified

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

What This Code Means

Stiffness or reduced movement in a joint that is not covered by other specific stiffness codes.

Coding Tips

  • •This is a catch-all code for joint stiffness in locations not specifically listed; document which joint is affected
  • •Review the medical record to determine if a more specific M25.6x code with anatomical detail would be more appropriate
