75.4 Manual removal of retained placenta.
Most women safely deliver the placenta after having a baby, but sometimes it can stay inside the womb. This can cause serious side effects. Life-threatening bleeding. If your placenta is not delivered, it can cause life-threatening bleeding called hemorrhaging.
Often, some of the pregnancy tissue remains in the uterus after a miscarriage. If it is not removed by scraping the uterus with a curette (a spoon-shaped instrument), you may bleed for a long time or develop an infection.
Commonly reported CPT codes for miscarriages include: 59812, treatment of incomplete abortion, any trimester. 59820, treatment of missed abortion, completed surgically; first trimester. 59821, treatment of missed abortion, completed surgically; second trimester.
When an induced abortion is performed by dilating the cervix and performing sharp and/or suction curettage, use CPT code 59840 for reported such procedures. If the cervix is dilated and the uterus mechanically evacuated, code 59841 is reported.

59160From a CPT coding perspective, it would be appropriate to report CPT code 59160, Curettage, postpartum, for the D&C of the retained placenta."
When the placenta is completely separated, draw it gently through the cervix, giving a slight forward twist of your hand as you enter the vagina, to help peel the membranes off the wall of the uterus, and also make a smaller bundle of the placenta as it is drawn out of the uterus and vagina.
If the placenta isn't delivered, the blood vessels where the organ is still attached will continue to bleed. Your uterus will also be unable to close properly and prevent blood loss. This is why the risk of severe blood loss significantly increases when the placenta isn't delivered within 30 minutes of childbirth.
