Excludes1 inherited from the categories above S32.436D

Written on S32 — Fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis

transection of abdomen (S38.3)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above S32.436D

fracture of hip NOS (S72.0-)

Other codes that can never be billed with S32.436D

M84.3Stress fracture
M84.4Pathological fracture, not elsewhere classified

Risk adjustment

S32.436D 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

S32.436D 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.
