HCC 254: Monoplegia, Other Paralytic Syndromes ICD-10-CM
CMS-HCC Category 254 (Monoplegia, Other Paralytic Syndromes) is a payment HCC in the V28 Medicare Advantage risk adjustment model. For payment year 2026 it adds a risk adjustment factor between 0.000 and 0.365 to a beneficiary's RAF score depending on the payment segment (0.321 for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee). 119 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes map to HCC 254. A more severe related category (HCC 180, HCC 181, HCC 191, HCC 192, and HCC 253) supersedes it when both are reported.
RAF Weight by Payment Segment 7 segments
| Payment Segment | Relative Factor |
|---|---|
| Community, non-dual, aged | 0.321 |
| Community, partial-benefit dual, aged | 0.290 |
| Community, full-benefit dual, aged | 0.292 |
| Community, non-dual, disabled | 0.172 |
| Community, partial-benefit dual, disabled | 0.335 |
| Community, full-benefit dual, disabled | 0.365 |
| Institutional | 0.000 |
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 180 (Quadriplegia), HCC 181 (Paraplegia), HCC 191 (Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy), HCC 192 (Cerebral Palsy, Except Quadriplegic), and HCC 253 (Hemiplegia/Hemiparesis) supersede HCC 254 when reported together.

Questions About HCC 254
What is HCC 254 in the CMS-HCC model?
HCC 254 is CMS-HCC Category 254 (Monoplegia, Other Paralytic Syndromes) in the V28 risk adjustment model. It covers 119 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes that raise a Medicare Advantage beneficiary's risk score when documented.
What is the RAF weight for HCC 254?
For payment year 2026, HCC 254 adds 0.321 to the RAF score of a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary. The published weights range from 0.000 to 0.365 across the seven payment segments shown above.
Which categories supersede HCC 254?
HCC 180 (Quadriplegia), HCC 181 (Paraplegia), HCC 191 (Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy), HCC 192 (Cerebral Palsy, Except Quadriplegic), and HCC 253 (Hemiplegia/Hemiparesis) sit above HCC 254 in the hierarchy: when a beneficiary has diagnoses in both, only the more severe category is paid.
