What This Code Means
QA0.0151 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for foxg1 syndrome. A rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the FOXG1 gene that affects brain development, causing intellectual disability, seizures, and movement problems. QA0.0151 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities (q00-qa0), within the section covering genetic disorders, not elsewhere classified (qa0).
QA0.0151 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.
This is a specific genetic syndrome code; document the FOXG1 gene mutation in the medical record.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for QA0.0151 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •This is a specific genetic syndrome code; document the FOXG1 gene mutation in the medical record
- •Often associated with infantile spasms and severe developmental delay; code additional manifestations separately
