Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM
P05.10 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for newborn small for gestational age, unspecified weight. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Risk adjustment
P05.10 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.
