Osteolysis, right hand

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

What This Code Means

A condition where bone tissue gradually dissolves or is reabsorbed in the right hand, potentially affecting hand function and strength.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm 'right hand' is explicitly documented; do not assume based on patient handedness
  • •Consider if the condition affects specific bones (carpal, metacarpal, or phalangeal) as additional detail for clinical documentation
