HCC 23: Prostate, Breast, and Other Cancers and Tumors ICD-10-CM
CMS-HCC Category 23 (Prostate, Breast, and Other Cancers and Tumors) is a payment HCC in the V28 Medicare Advantage risk adjustment model. For payment year 2026 it adds a risk adjustment factor between 0.186 and 0.237 to a beneficiary's RAF score depending on the payment segment (0.186 for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee). 234 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes map to HCC 23. A more severe related category (HCC 17, HCC 18, HCC 19, HCC 20, HCC 21, and HCC 22) supersedes it when both are reported.
RAF Weight by Payment Segment 7 segments
| Payment Segment | Relative Factor |
|---|---|
| Community, non-dual, aged | 0.186 |
| Community, partial-benefit dual, aged | 0.203 |
| Community, full-benefit dual, aged | 0.196 |
| Community, non-dual, disabled | 0.233 |
| Community, partial-benefit dual, disabled | 0.237 |
| Community, full-benefit dual, disabled | 0.218 |
| Institutional | 0.197 |
A beneficiary is scored in exactly one segment, set by Medicaid (dual) status, aged or disabled entitlement, and residence. Factors are relative weights, not dollar amounts; new-enrollee segments score on demographics only. In the hierarchy, HCC 17 (Cancer Metastatic to Lung, Liver, Brain, and Other Organs; Acute Myeloid Leukemia Except Promyelocytic), HCC 18 (Cancer Metastatic to Bone, Other and Unspecified Metastatic Cancer; Acute Leukemia Except Myeloid), HCC 19 (Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Multiple Myeloma, and Other Cancers), HCC 20 (Lung and Other Severe Cancers), HCC 21 (Lymphoma and Other Cancers), and HCC 22 (Bladder, Colorectal, and Other Cancers) supersede HCC 23 when reported together.

Questions About HCC 23
What is HCC 23 in the CMS-HCC model?
HCC 23 is CMS-HCC Category 23 (Prostate, Breast, and Other Cancers and Tumors) in the V28 risk adjustment model. It covers 234 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes that raise a Medicare Advantage beneficiary's risk score when documented.
What is the RAF weight for HCC 23?
For payment year 2026, HCC 23 adds 0.186 to the RAF score of a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary. The published weights range from 0.186 to 0.237 across the seven payment segments shown above.
Which categories supersede HCC 23?
HCC 17 (Cancer Metastatic to Lung, Liver, Brain, and Other Organs; Acute Myeloid Leukemia Except Promyelocytic), HCC 18 (Cancer Metastatic to Bone, Other and Unspecified Metastatic Cancer; Acute Leukemia Except Myeloid), HCC 19 (Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Multiple Myeloma, and Other Cancers), HCC 20 (Lung and Other Severe Cancers), HCC 21 (Lymphoma and Other Cancers), and HCC 22 (Bladder, Colorectal, and Other Cancers) sit above HCC 23 in the hierarchy: when a beneficiary has diagnoses in both, only the more severe category is paid.
