Excludes2 inherited from the categories above M10.2
Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of M10.2, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.
Written on M10 — Gout
- chronic gout (M1A.-)
Other codes that can never be billed with M10.2
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at M10.2. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading M10.2 alone.
Risk adjustment
M10.2 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.
Code history
M10.2 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
