Excludes1 inherited from the categories above V82.5XXA

Written on V82.5 — Occupant of streetcar injured by fall in streetcar
Other codes that can never be billed with V82.5XXA
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at V82.5XXA. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading V82.5XXA alone.

Risk adjustment
V82.5XXA 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 history
V82.5XXA has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
