Osseous stenosis of neural canal of thoracic region

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

What This Code Means

Bone overgrowth in the mid-back spine that narrows the nerve passage, potentially causing back pain or nerve-related chest symptoms.

Coding Tips

  • •Document the specific thoracic vertebral level (T1-T12) if documented in the medical record
  • •Verify this is osseous stenosis; if related to disc herniation, consider alternative codes
