  • code to identify the specific infection, such as:
  • sepsis (A41.9)
  • code (R65.2-) to identify severe sepsis, if applicable

Risk adjustment

T80.2 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 T80.2

3 child codes. Green means billable.
