B47.1 — Actinomycetoma
B47.1 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for actinomycetoma. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Other codes that can never be billed with B47.1
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at B47.1. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading B47.1 alone.
Risk adjustment
B47.1 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
