F82

F82 — Specific developmental disorder of motor function

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

F82 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for specific developmental disorder of motor function. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

abnormalities of gait and mobility (R26.-)
lack of coordination (R27.-)

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.

lack of coordination secondary to intellectual disabilities (F70-F79)

Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

Clumsy child syndrome
Developmental coordination disorder
Developmental dyspraxia

Risk adjustment

F82 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.

Medicare coverage

F82 is named in 16 Medicare coverage policies — 14 listing it as supporting medical necessity, and 2 listing it as NOT covered. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
