Excludes2 inherited from the categories above N99.62

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of N99.62, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

postoophorectomy osteoporosis without current pathological fracture (M81.8)

Risk adjustment

N99.62 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.

Medicare coverage

N99.62 is named in 2 Medicare coverage policies — 2 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
