  • HCC 155 Major Depression, Moderate or Severe, without Psychosis0.299 RAF
  • HCC 155 Major Depression, Moderate or Severe, without Psychosis0.299 RAF

Coefficient shown for the Community Non-dual Aged segment. A higher HCC in the same hierarchy will suppress this one, so capturing it does not always add score. Look up the whole chart to see which of its HCCs the hierarchy would zero.
