What CMS assigns to G99
None of the 3 codes is assigned a clinical group. 1 of the 3 counts toward the Nondiabetic neuropathy comorbidity subgroup; 2 are assigned none. None can lead a claim. CMS attaches a code-first note to all 3.
- Nondiabetic neuropathy: counts toward the high comorbidity tier only in an interaction pair.
