Enriched existing chart review exclusion claim with detailed mechanics of how V28 and chart review exclusion work as complementary reforms. The source provides crucial mechanical detail about the dual nature of the reforms—V28 targets what can be coded (breadth), chart review exclusion targets how it's coded (method). The 70% unsupported rate is the most striking finding, suggesting systematic rather than isolated gaming." --- ## Content @@ -66,3 +71,11 @@ tags: [risk-adjustment, cms-hcc, upcoding, medicare-advantage, V28, chart-review PRIMARY CONNECTION: [[CMS 2027 chart review exclusion targets vertical integration profit arbitrage by removing upcoded diagnoses from MA risk scoring]] WHY ARCHIVED: Deepens the existing KB claim with mechanical detail about how risk adjustment actually works and how reforms target it.
