Q66.229

Billable

Congenital metatarsus adductus, unspecified foot

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

What This Code Means

A congenital foot deformity where the forefoot is turned inward, but the specific foot (right or left) is not documented.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when laterality cannot be determined from the medical record; query provider if possible for more specific coding
  • •If bilateral involvement is documented, code both Q66.221 and Q66.222 instead of using the unspecified code
