What This Code Means
Z89.122 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for acquired absence of left wrist. The person has lost their left hand at or near the wrist level, either due to amputation, accident, or surgical removal. Z89.122 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for factors influencing health status and contact with health services (z00-z99), within the section covering persons with potential health hazards related to family and personal history and certain conditions influencing health status (z77-z99).
Z89.122 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 code specifically indicates the LEFT wrist; confirm laterality in the medical record.
