What This Code Means
T25 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for burn and corrosion of ankle and foot. T25 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (s00-t88), within the section covering burns and corrosions of external body surface, specified by site (t20-t25).
Header codes like T25 cannot be reported on claims directly; they organize child codes that share clinical context. Coders should select the billable child code that matches the documented presentation and then verify its current source-backed HCC mapping. Do not infer a child code or risk adjustment value from the header alone.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for T25 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
