What This Code Means

M84.851 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other disorders of continuity of bone, right pelvic region and thigh. A disorder affecting the structural continuity of the bones in the right pelvic region and thigh that doesn't fit into other specific bone conditions. M84.851 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (m00-m99), within the section covering disorders of bone density and structure (m80-m85).

M84.851 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.

Confirm right side is documented; this includes pelvic bones and femur (thighbone).

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for M84.851 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
