M62.2 — Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

compartment syndrome (traumatic) (T79.A-)
nontraumatic compartment syndrome (M79.A-)
traumatic ischemia of muscle (T79.6)
rhabdomyolysis (M62.82)
Volkmann's ischemic contracture (T79.6)

Other codes that can never be billed with M62.2

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at M62.2. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading M62.2 alone.

M79.ANontraumatic compartment syndrome
G72Other and unspecified myopathies

Risk adjustment

M62.2 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 to one of these instead M62.2

9 child codes. Green means billable.
