M67.369
BillableTransient synovitis, unspecified knee
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Temporary inflammation of the fluid-filled sac in the knee joint when the specific side (left or right) is not documented or specified.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code only when laterality cannot be determined from documentation; query provider if possible for specificity
- •This is a less specific code; bilateral involvement should be coded separately for each side
