What do you do when you take a positive pregnancy test?
When is a blood pregnancy test positive? The blood pregnancy test generally provides greater accuracy earlier. If you are pregnant, your blood test will usually be positive within 3-4 days after implantation or about 9-10 days after fertilization and ovulation, which is roughly 5-6 days before a missed period.
examination, pregnancy negative result V72.41 not confirmed V72.40 positive result V72.42
A negative pregnancy test result means the test hasn’t detected hCG in your urine. If your period is very late, or you’ve skipped your period, and you get a negative result, you are unlikely to be pregnant. If you are testing before the date of your expected period, you may be pregnant but your hCG levels are too low for the test to detect.
Inappropriate change in quantitative human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in early pregnancy. O02. 81 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM O02.
Pregnancy Test: CPT Code 81025 for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) urine testing performed in the office should be reported on a claim any time the test is performed.
Code Z33. 1 This code is a secondary code only for use when the pregnancy is in no way complicating the reason for visit. Otherwise, a code from the obstetric chapter is required.
Pregnant state, incidental1 Pregnant state, incidental.
A high level of HCG indicates that a person is pregnant. A negative qualitative HCG test means a person is not pregnant. If they still suspect that they are pregnant, a person should repeat the test after a few days . False-positive results may occur if hormone levels are high due to menopause or hormone supplements.
Encounter for supervision of other normal pregnancy82 Encounter for supervision of other normal pregnancy, second trimester.
Chapter 15 codes have sequencing priority over codes from all other chapters. The only exception to this is if a pregnant woman is seen for an unrelated condition. In such cases, code Z33. 1 Pregnant State, Incidental should be used after the primary reason for the visit.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z32.00 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'. This can arise in two main ways:

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code V72.42 was previously used, Z32.01 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
The Pregnancy ICD 10 code belong to the Chapter 15 – Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Puerperium of the ICD-10-CM and these codes take sequencing priority over all the other chapter codes.
Ectopic pregnancy (Code range- O00.00 – O00.91) – This is a potentially life-threatening condition in which the fertilize egg is implanted outside the uterus, usually in one of the fallopian tubes or occasionally in the abdomen or ovaries.
The chapter 15- Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Puerperium codes can be used only to code the maternal records and never the newborn records.
Pre-existing hypertension complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (Code range- O10.011-O10.93) – A pregnancy complication arising due to the patient being hypertensive, having proteinuria (increased levels of protein in urine), hypertensive heart disease, hypertensive CKD or both prior to the pregnancy.
A high-risk pregnancy is a threat to the health and the life of the mother and the fetus.
Complications following (induced) termination of pregnancy (Code range- O04.5 – O04.89) – This includes the complications followed by abortions that are induced intentionally.
Hydatidiform mole (Code range- O01.0 – O01.9) – Also known as molar pregnancy is an abnormal fertilized egg or a non-cancerous tumor of the placental tissue which mimics a normal pregnancy initially but later leads to vaginal bleeding along with severe nausea and vomiting.
During pregnancy, childbirth or the puerperium, a patient admitted (or presenting for a health care encounter) because of COVID-19 should receive a principal diagnosis code of O98.5- , Other viral diseases complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium, followed by code U07.1, COVID-19, and the appropriate codes for associated manifestation (s). Codes from Chapter 15 always take sequencing priority
For cases where there is a concern about a possible exposure to COVID-19, but this is ruled out after evaluation, assign code Z03.818, Encounter for observation for suspected exposure to other biological agents ruled out.
If a patient with signs/symptoms associated with COVID-19 also has an actual or suspected contact with or exposure to someone who has COVID-19, assign Z20.828, Contact with and (suspected) exposure to other viral communicable diseases, as an additional code. This is an exception to guideline I.C.21.c.1, Contact/Exposure.
Bronchitis not otherwise specified (NOS) due to COVID-19 should be coded using code U07.1 and J40, Bronchitis, not specified as acute or chronic.
When COVID-19 meets the definition of principal diagnosis, code U07.1, COVID-19, should be sequenced first, followed by the appropriate codes for associated manifestations, except in the case of obstetrics patients as indicated in Section . I.C.15.s. for COVID-19 in pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium.
