R93
R93 — Abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of other body structures
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
R93 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of other body structures. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.
Other codes that can never be billed with R93
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at R93. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading R93 alone.
Risk adjustment
R93 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.
