M75 — Shoulder lesions
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
M75 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for shoulder lesions. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.
Excludes2 — not included here, but may coexist
The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.
- shoulder-hand syndrome (M89.0-)
Other codes that can never be billed with M75
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at M75. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading M75 alone.
Risk adjustment
M75 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 M75
8 child codes. Green means billable.
