D00
D00 — Carcinoma in situ of oral cavity, esophagus and stomach
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
D00 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for carcinoma in situ of oral cavity, esophagus and stomach. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

D00 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.
Code to one of these instead D00
3 child codes. Green means billable.
