Other codes that can never be billed with G25.2

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at G25.2. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading G25.2 alone.

Risk adjustment

G25.2 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.

Medicare coverage

G25.2 is named in 19 Medicare coverage policies 19 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
