Osteopathy after poliomyelitis, left thigh

Bone disease that develops as a complication of poliomyelitis affecting the left thigh, causing weakening or deformity of the bone in that area.

Buddy the Bee presenting code insight

Buddy Insight

Left thigh post-polio osteopathy involves chronic bone deterioration in the left femur as a late consequence of poliomyelitis infection, potentially compromising hip and knee function and affecting overall mobility and independence.

Audit Caution

HCC Buddy guidance
Mixing up neurological versus bone manifestations of post-polio complications
Confusing left and right thigh laterality
Missing the historical connection to poliomyelitis infection
Incorrectly coding as acute trauma or primary degenerative disease

Common Mistakes

HCC Buddy guidance
G14 — Post-polio syndrome primarily neurological, not bone-related
M25.552 — Left thigh pain is symptomatic presentation only
S72.002A — Femoral fracture represents acute trauma
M16.12 — Primary hip osteoarthritis lacks post-infectious etiology

Is M89.652 an HCC code?

Yes. M89.652 (Osteopathy after poliomyelitis, left thigh) maps to HCC 92, Bone/Joint/Muscle/Severe Soft Tissue Infections/Necrosis under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, with a source-labeled community non-dual aged reference coefficient of 0.479. Source-labeled code-level coefficients are references, not member totals. Actual contribution depends on complete member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and model year. HCC Buddy's RAF Calculator supports CMS-HCC V28 PY2026 and shows no score unless every required source and calculation check passes. It is billable for payment year 2026.

Coder answer: M89.652 is billable and maps to V28 HCC 92, Bone/Joint/Muscle/Severe Soft Tissue Infections/Necrosis. Open it in the Code Book for the tabular path, RAF, and MEAT checklist.

These are source-labeled model coefficients, not member totals. A category may still be removed by hierarchy or model cleanup rules. Weights are not directly comparable across models: CMS-HCC V28 and V24 use Community, Non-Dual, Aged; ESRD uses the dialysis continuing-enrollee model; RxHCC is the Part D continuing-enrollee, non-low-income, aged weight (a larger scale than CMS-HCC). ACA/HHS has no single weight — it varies by metal level. Actual per-patient RAF contribution depends on member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and the model year used by the payer. V28 is the CMS-HCC model phased in over payment years 2024–2026; V24 remains available for historical review.

MEAT review for M89.652

For M89.652, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule.

  • MMonitor: signs, symptoms, disease progression, or lab trending documented in the note
  • EEvaluate: test results, medication response, or physical findings reviewed by the provider
  • AAssess: explicit mention in the assessment or plan with acknowledgment of status
  • TTreat: medication, referral, procedure, therapy, or counseling tied to the diagnosis

What This Code Means

M89.652 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for osteopathy after poliomyelitis, left thigh. Bone disease that develops as a complication of poliomyelitis affecting the left thigh, causing weakening or deformity of the bone in that area. M89.652 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (m00-m99), within the section covering other osteopathies (m86-m90).

Under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, M89.652 maps to Bone/Joint/Muscle/Severe Soft Tissue Infections/Necrosis (HCC 92) with a source-labeled community, non-dual, aged reference coefficient of 0.479. No V24 mapping is shown for M89.652; use the applicable model and payment year when reviewing the V28 mapping. For CY2026 non-PACE Medicare Advantage, CMS uses 100% of the 2024 CMS-HCC model (V28). PACE uses a separate model blend. Source-labeled code-level coefficients are references, not member totals. Actual contribution depends on complete member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and model year. HCC Buddy's RAF Calculator supports CMS-HCC V28 PY2026 and shows no score unless every required source and calculation check passes.

This code is used for late effects of polio; ensure the patient has a documented history of poliomyelitis. For M89.652, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule. When documentation is ambiguous, coders should issue a provider query rather than assume the highest-specificity variant.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for M89.652 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • This code is used for late effects of polio; ensure the patient has a documented history of poliomyelitis
  • The fifth character '2' specifically indicates the left thigh; verify laterality in documentation before coding

Clinical Significance

Left thigh post-polio osteopathy involves chronic bone deterioration in the left femur as a late consequence of poliomyelitis infection, potentially compromising hip and knee function and affecting overall mobility and independence. This represents a significant long-term sequela requiring comprehensive management.

Documentation Requirements

  • Documented history of previous poliomyelitis infection
  • Specific documentation of left thigh bone involvement
  • Current imaging showing post-polio changes in left femur
  • Left hip and knee functional assessment
  • Weight-bearing status and ambulatory capacity
  • Pain quantification and mobility limitations
  • Physical therapy recommendations and mobility aids
  • Coordination with comprehensive post-polio syndrome management

Commonly Confused Codes

  • G14: Post-polio syndrome primarily neurological, not bone-related
  • M25.552: Left thigh pain is symptomatic presentation only
  • S72.002A: Femoral fracture represents acute trauma
  • M16.12: Primary hip osteoarthritis lacks post-infectious etiology
  • M87.852: Other osteonecrosis has different underlying mechanism

Child Codes

Code Hierarchy

For M89.652, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule.

M89.652 maps to CMS-HCC V28 category 92, Bone/Joint/Muscle/Severe Soft Tissue Infections/Necrosis. See the ICD-10 to HCC mapping hub for how the V28 crosswalk works. The mapping identifies a payment HCC category for M89.652. Review its source-labeled HCC coefficient above, check the RAF Calculator with complete member context for CMS-HCC V28 PY2026, and confirm the documentation the chart needs before the code is submitted. HCC Buddy shows no RAF score unless every required source and calculation check passes.
