Inclusion terms
Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.
- Hepatic vein thrombosis
Other codes that can never be billed with I82.0
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at I82.0. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading I82.0 alone.
- K76.5Hepatic veno-occlusive disease
Risk adjustment
I82.0 risk-adjusts. Under the CMS-HCC V28 model it maps to this category:
- HCC 267 Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism0.294 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.
Medicare coverage
I82.0 is named in 15 Medicare coverage policies — 15 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
