Is Y74.8 an HCC code?

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Y74.8 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for miscellaneous general hospital and personal-use devices associated with adverse incidents, not elsewhere classified. An adverse event or injury caused by a general hospital or home medical device that does not fit into other specific categories. Y74.8 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for external causes of morbidity (v00-y99), within the section covering medical devices associated with adverse incidents in diagnostic and therapeutic use (y70-y82).
Y74.8 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 general hospital devices not classified elsewhere; use only when more specific Y74 codes don't apply.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for Y74.8 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
