L89.201 — Pressure ulcer of unspecified hip, stage 1

Risk adjustment

L89.201 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

L89.201 is named in 4 Medicare coverage policies — 2 listing it as supporting medical necessity, and 2 listing it as NOT covered. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
