What This Code Means
R93.49 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for abnormal radiologic findings on diagnostic imaging of other urinary organs. An imaging test shows an abnormal finding in other parts of the urinary system, such as the bladder, ureters, or urethra, that requires further evaluation. R93.49 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (r00-r99), within the section covering abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging and in function studies, without diagnosis (r90-r94).
R93.49 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 catch-all code for urinary organs other than the kidneys.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for R93.49 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •This is a catch-all code for urinary organs other than the kidneys
- •Document which specific urinary organ shows the abnormality in the medical record for clarity
