M26-M27 — Dentofacial anomalies [including malocclusion] and other disorders of jaw

Every ICD-10-CM code in this range and the PDGM clinical group CMS assigns to it, read from the CMS grouper crosswalk v07.2.26.

Where these codes group

6 of the 94 codes in M26-M27 group to Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation, but the range is not uniform — it spreads across 2 clinical groups. A further 87 are assigned no clinical group at all, which means a 30-day period cannot be grouped from them.

Code families in M26-M27

One page per three-character family: every code in it, whether it can lead a claim, its clinical group and comorbidity subgroup.
