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.
Inappropriate level of quantitative human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for gestational age in early pregnancy Trimesters are counted from the first day of the last menstrual period. They are defined as follows:

If qualitative hCG is positive or indeterminate, a quantitative hCG will be performed at an additional charge (CPT code(s): 84702).
Z32. 01 - Encounter for pregnancy test, result positive. ICD-10-CM.
A quantitative human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test measures the specific level of HCG in the blood. HCG is a hormone produced in the body during pregnancy. Other HCG tests include: HCG urine test. HCG blood test -- qualitative.
Qualitative, which measures whether the HCG hormone is present. Quantitative, which measures how much HCG is present.
This test is qualitative and only detects the presence of hCG in your blood. Please note that this test is not quantitative and therefore does not measure the amount of hCG. If you would like more information about your hCG levels, it is recommended that you follow up with a physician or OB-GYN.
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.
If the doctor's documentation had just documented, “positive pregnancy test,” the code would be Z32. 01, Encounter for pregnancy test, result positive.
Do the test on your first urination of the morning. The test may be more accurate at this time, because morning urine usually has more HCG. Hold the dipstick in your urine stream for 5 to 10 seconds. For kits that include a collection cup, urinate into the cup, and insert the dipstick into the cup for 5 to 10 seconds.
The hCG urine test is a qualitative test, which means that it will tell you whether or not it detects the hCG hormone in your urine. It's not intended to reveal specific levels of the hormone. The presence of hCG in your urine is considered a positive sign of pregnancy.
Similar to a home urine test, the result of a qualitative hCG blood test only shows whether a woman is pregnant or not. The test is also about as accurate as a home urine test. On the other hand, a beta hCG test, also known as a quantitative hCG test, measures the exact level of the pregnancy hormone in the blood.
hCG can also be detected in urine, which is how over-the-counter pregnancy tests work. When a hCG test result is undetectable or inconclusive and the woman has symptoms of pregnancy, the test should be repeated 3 days later.
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:
