Coding Tips for E31.1

Specialist guidance from the PayerReady Medical Coding Team. Specificity warnings, HCC capture rules, sequencing notes.

HCC capture: document with MEAT each year

E31.1 is a CMS-HCC v28 risk-adjustment code (category 23). To count for the patient Risk Adjustment Factor (RAF), document the diagnosis with MEAT language each calendar year: Monitored, Evaluated, Assessed, Treated. A diagnosis on the problem list alone does not satisfy CMS RADV audit standards. Include the diagnosis in the assessment with current status and current treatment plan.

Type 1 Excludes

Pure excludes, these codes can never be coded together with E31.1. The conditions are mutually exclusive (e.g., congenital vs acquired forms).

  • multiple endocrine adenomatosis (E31.2-)
  • multiple endocrine neoplasia (E31.2-)
