Yes, the RxHCC code system and code were added to the Value Set Directory when we created the ESRD Status Value Set. This code is used to identify patients with ESRD for the denominator exclusion in Diabetes: Appropriate Treatment for Hypertension and Proportion of Days Covered by Medications.
The RxHCC code can be found in the CMS Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug System (MARx), which provides a monthly report of members’ RxHCCs to plan sponsors. For MY 2014, use the 2013 model software of the RxHCC system.
