L89.306 — Pressure-induced deep tissue damage of unspecified buttock

Risk adjustment

L89.306 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

L89.306 is named in 7 Medicare coverage policies — 6 listing it as supporting medical necessity, and 1 listing it as NOT covered. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
