false labor (O47.0-)
threatened labor NOS (O47.0-)

Other codes that can never be billed with O60.02

O47False labor

Risk adjustment

O60.02 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.

Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to O60.02.
