What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps coders and clinicians identify chronic conditions that may qualify for CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment, connect ICD-10-CM diagnoses to HCC categories, and estimate RAF scores without treating the result as autonomous coding.
Core Features & Use Cases
- HCC Mapping: Map ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes to CMS-HCC V28 categories using official CMS crosswalks.
- RAF Estimation: Apply HCC hierarchies and model coefficients to estimate disease and total RAF components.
- Documentation Review: Link candidate HCCs to note evidence and assess MEAT support for monitoring, evaluation, assessment, or treatment.
- Use Case: Review a clinical note for suspected or recaptured HCCs, identify unsupported mentions such as historical or negated conditions, and produce an auditable candidate list for coder or clinician validation.
Quick Start
Use the coding-hcc-risk-adjustment skill to map the documented conditions in the provided clinical note to CMS-HCC V28 categories, apply the appropriate hierarchy and coefficients, and return candidate HCCs with RAF estimates and MEAT evidence for human review.
