Our coders have been using O69.1XX0 (L&D complicated by cord around neck, with compression) for deliveries where "tight nuchal cord" is documented. Does the provider have to specifically document "tight nuchal cord" with compression, or is "tight nuchal cord" sufficient enough to use the “with compression” code?

A nuchal translucency screening, or NT screening, is a specialized routine ultrasound performed at the end of the first trimester of pregnancy. It helps doctors determine if a baby is statistically more likely to have a chromosomal abnormality.
Code M54. 2 is the diagnosis code used for Cervicalgia (Neck Pain). It is a common problem, with two-thirds of the population having neck pain at some point in their lives.
Abstract. Nuchal cord occurs when the umbilical cord becomes wrapped around the fetal neck 360 degrees. Nuchal cords occur in about 10–29% of fetuses and the incidence increases with advancing gestation age.
A “tight” nuchal cord is defined as one that cannot be slipped over the baby's head during delivery, and may compress the fetal neck. Third, the nuchal cord can be Type A or Type B: A Type A nuchal cord is “unlocked.” The umbilical end goes under the placental end, and fetal movement can easily undo it.
The NIPT by GenePlanet test is much more accurate than the nuchal translucency scan. Its detection rate for the three most common trisomies present at birth is higher than 99%.

It may not be covered by insurance because this type of genetic testing is not standard for pregnant people of all ages. Rather, it's more common in those over 35 who have a higher risk of birth defects.

M54. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code used for Cervicalgia (Neck Pain). The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM M54. 2 became effective on October 1, 2020.
ICD-10 code R22. 1 for Localized swelling, mass and lump, neck is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
A special ultrasound, called a nuchal translucency screening, measures the back of the baby's neck. At times, the nuchal translucency test may add on ultrasound markers, such as measuring a baby's nasal bone. The combined result of the blood tests and the ultrasound gives you a sense of your baby's risk.
First trimester measurement of NT at 12 weeks of gestation was 3.2 mm during the routine first trimester screening. The normal range of NT for this age is 1.1-3 mm.
What is a normal nuchal translucency measurement? An NT of less than 3.5mm is considered normal when your baby measures between 45mm (1.8in) and 84mm (3.3in) . Up to 14 weeks, your baby's NT measurement usually increases as they grow. But after this, extra fluid can be reabsorbed.
Studies have shown that in normal fetuses the fluid collection known as NT increases with gestational age until about 13 weeks' gestation3 and usually disappears after 14 weeks3, 4.
