M80.0 — Age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
M80.0 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below. This code also requires a 7th character before it is complete.

- D
- subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing
- G
- subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
- K
- subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion
- P
- subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion
- S

Risk adjustment
M80.0 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 M80.0
