M02 Postinfective and reactive arthropathies

All 121 codes in the M02 family, with the PDGM clinical group, comorbidity subgroup and primary-position rule CMS assigns, read from the CMS grouper crosswalk v07.2.26 and the CDC FY2027 code file.

What CMS assigns to M02

None of the 121 codes is assigned a clinical group. None of the 121 is assigned a comorbidity subgroup. None can lead a claim. CMS attaches a code-first note to all 121.

Code first

CMS grouper convention 113, on all 121 codes. Code first:

  • congenital syphilis [Clutton's joints] (A50.5)
  • enteritis due to Yersinia enterocolitica (A04.6)
  • infective endocarditis (I33.0)
  • underlying disease, such as:
  • viral hepatitis (B15-B19)

Every code in M02

Descriptions are CDC’s FY2027 wording; where CMS’s grouper abbreviates one, its form is shown beneath.
