Billable

Other spondylosis with radiculopathy, cervical region

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

What This Code Means

Degenerative spine disease in the neck (cervical region) causing nerve root compression and pain radiating into the arm or shoulder.

Coding Tips

  • •Radiculopathy indicates nerve root compression; document which nerve root is affected if possible for clinical clarity
  • •Most common location for spondylosis with radiculopathy; ensure myelopathy is not present (would use M47.12 instead)
