Other codes that can never be billed with V39

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at V39. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading V39 alone.

  • V34Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus
  • V86Occupant of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle, injured in transport accident
  • Y36Operations of war
  • Y37Military operations

V39 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 V39

9 child codes. Green means billable.
