G54.7 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for phantom limb syndrome without pain. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 73 through 74. Coders also document this condition as phantom limb. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Nerve and nerve root disorders.

For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, G54.7 maps to CMS-HCC Category 409 (Amputation Status, Lower Limb/Amputation Complications) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.598 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2027.

Questions About G54.7Overview

What is the ICD-10 code for phantom limb syndrome without pain?

The ICD-10-CM code for phantom limb syndrome without pain is G54.7 (sometimes written as G547). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Is G54.7 (Nerve root and plexus disorders) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report phantom limb syndrome without pain on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What MS-DRG does G54.7 group to?

When phantom limb syndrome without pain is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 74, 73, with relative weights from 1.0172 to 1.5773 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Can G54.7 be reported with M79.2?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at G54, which applies to G54.7, lists "neuralgia or neuritis NOS (M79.2)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of G54.7?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, phantom limb syndrome without pain converts to ICD-9-CM 353.6 (phantom limb (syndrome)). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.

What HCC is G54.7?

G54.7 (phantom limb syndrome without pain) maps to CMS-HCC Category 409 (Amputation Status, Lower Limb/Amputation Complications), commonly written as HCC 409, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2027. It mapped to HCC 189 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. It does not map to any RxHCC in the Part D prescription drug model.

Does G54.7 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?

Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, G54.7 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.598 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.284 to 0.844 depending on the payment segment). A more severe related category (HCC 263 and HCC 405) supersedes it when both are reported. See the full factor table on the HCC 409 category page.
