HCC (Hierarchical Condition Category) coding is a risk adjustment model used mainly by:
✔ Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
✔ Medicare Advantage Plans
✔ ACA Commercial plans
It predicts future healthcare costs based on patient disease burden.
👉 More chronic/severe conditions = higher risk score = higher reimbursement.
HCC coding aims to:
✔ Capture all active chronic & significant conditions
✔ Reflect true patient complexity
✔ Calculate accurate RAF (Risk Adjustment Factor)
✔ Prevent underpayment or overpayment
