Response: ICD-10 code Z34. xx, Encounter for supervision of normal pregnancy, is used for a routine outpatient diagnostic visit when no obstetrical complication or condition codes found in Chapter 15, Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Puerperium are applicable to the encounter.

ICD-10 | Threatened abortion (O20. 0)
Pregnancy at advanced maternal age (AMA), defined as age 35 years or older, is associated with several adverse pregnancy outcomes including preterm birth, low birth weight, still birth, chromosomal defects, labor complications, and cesarean section [3–7]; therefore, it is considered to be a “high risk” pregnancy.Sep 19, 2012
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.
The chapter 15- Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Puerperium codes can be used only to code the maternal records and never the newborn records. Any complications or conditions arising due to pregnancy, childbirth or puerperium should be coded using the codes from this chapter.
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.
Missed abortion (O02.1)- The retention of a non-viable fetus along with the placenta and embryonic tissues inside the uterus without the body recognizing the loss of pregnancy and therefore failing to naturally expel the non-viable contents like in spontaneous abortion.
Pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy (PUPPP) – chronic hives-like rash seen during pregnancy causing severe pruritus. Cervical shortening – Shortening of the length of the uterine cervix which increases the risk of preterm labor.
Morbidly adherent placenta (Placenta accrete, Placenta increta, Placenta percreta) Placental infarction. Placenta previa (Code range O44.00- O44.53)- Condition in which the placenta is implanted in the lower parts of the uterus.
Other maternal disorders predominantly related to pregnancy (O20-O29) Hemorrhage in early pregnancy (O20) Excessive vomiting in pregnancy (O21) Venous complications and hemorrhoids in pregna ncy (O22) Infections of genitourinary tract in pregnancy (O23) Diabetes in pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium (O24)
2nd trimester- 14 weeks 0 days to less than 28 weeks 0 days. 3rd trimester- 28 weeks 0 days until delivery. Use additional code from category Z3A, Weeks of gestation, to identify the specific week of the pregnancy, if known.
