What This Code Means

M85.80 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other specified disorders of bone density and structure, unspecified site. A disorder affecting bone density or structure at an unspecified location in the body. M85.80 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).

M85.80 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 is a non-specific code; use only when the exact bone site cannot be determined.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for M85.80 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips
