Non-billable headerICD-10-CMleft

M84.632 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for pathological fracture in other disease, left ulna. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below. This code also requires a 7th character before it is complete.

This code requires a 7th character

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from subcategory M84.6:

A: initial encounter for fracture
D: subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing
G: subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
K: subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion
P: subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion
S: sequela

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above M84.632

These are not written on M84.632, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing M84.632 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on M84.6 — Pathological fracture in other disease

pathological fracture in osteoporosis (M80.-)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above M84.632

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of M84.632, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Risk adjustment

M84.632 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.

M84.632 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
