What This Code Means

M75.110 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for incomplete rotator cuff tear or rupture of unspecified shoulder, not specified as traumatic. A partial tear or rupture of the rotator cuff muscles in an unspecified shoulder that occurred without a specific traumatic injury. M75.110 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (m00-m99), within the section covering other soft tissue disorders (m70-m79).

M75.110 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

This code specifies an incomplete (partial) tear; ensure documentation distinguishes this from complete tears.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for M75.110 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
