Is T31.10 an HCC code?
No. T31.10 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to any HCC category in V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC.
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
T31.10 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for burns involving 10-19% of body surface with 0% to 9% third degree burns. A burn injury affecting 10-19% of the body surface area with minimal or no deep (third degree) burns. T31.10 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 multiple and unspecified body regions (t30-t32).
T31.10 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.
The first digit after the decimal (1) indicates 10-19% body surface area involvement; the second digit (0) indicates 0-9% third degree burns.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for T31.10 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •The first digit after the decimal (1) indicates 10-19% body surface area involvement; the second digit (0) indicates 0-9% third degree burns
- •Document both the total percentage of body affected and the percentage of deep burns to ensure accurate coding
