Excludes1 inherited from the categories above W00.1XXD
These are not written on W00.1XXD, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing W00.1XXD with anything listed here is a denial.
Other codes that can never be billed with W00.1XXD
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at W00.1XXD. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading W00.1XXD alone.

Risk adjustment
W00.1XXD 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
W00.1XXD has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
