Separation of muscle (nontraumatic), left thigh

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

What This Code Means

A spontaneous separation or tearing of muscle fibers in the left thigh that occurs without trauma or injury.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify documentation specifies 'nontraumatic' to distinguish from traumatic muscle tears
  • •Confirm laterality is documented as left thigh; if not specified, use M62.059 instead
