M76Enthesopathies, lower limb, excluding foot

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

M76 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for enthesopathies, lower limb, excluding foot. 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.

  • bursitis due to use, overuse and pressure (M70.-)
  • enthesopathies of ankle and foot (M77.5-)

Other codes that can never be billed with M76

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at M76. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading M76 alone.

  • M71Other bursopathies

Risk adjustment

M76 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 M76

10 child codes. Green means billable.
