retained cholelithiasis following cholecystectomy (K91.86)

Other codes that can never be billed with K80.7

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at K80.7. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading K80.7 alone.

K82.4Cholesterolosis of gallbladder
K83.1Obstruction of bile duct

Risk adjustment

K80.7 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.
