What This Code Means

Z95.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for presence of other heart-valve replacement. A patient who has had a heart valve replaced with a type of prosthetic valve not specified in other categories. Z95.4 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).

Z95.4 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.

Use this code when the valve replacement type doesn't fit into Z95.2 or Z95.3 categories.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for Z95.4 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Use this code when the valve replacement type doesn't fit into Z95.2 or Z95.3 categories
  • Always review documentation to ensure the more specific codes (Z95.2 or Z95.3) are not applicable before assigning this code
