Excludes2 — not included here, but may coexist

The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.

  • injury of blood vessels at lower leg level (S85.-)
  • injury of popliteal artery (S85.0)

Code also

Both codes may be needed to describe the encounter fully. Sequencing depends on the reason for the visit.

  • any associated open wound (S71.-)

Risk adjustment

S75 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.

Code to one of these instead S75

5 child codes. Green means billable.
