Congenital absence of unspecified limb(s)

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

What This Code Means

A rare congenital condition where one or more limbs are completely absent at birth, but it is unclear which specific limb or limbs are affected.

Coding Tips

•Use this code only when the documentation does not specify which limb(s) are absent
•If specific limbs are identified as absent, use more specific codes under Q71 or Q72 instead
