It’s interesting to note that if code O80 Normal delivery is assigned the principal dx for a delivery admission, code 10E0XZZ is this is the only appropriate ICD-10-PCS code to accompany that diagnosis. An assisted vaginal delivery is one that is accomplished with the assistance of instrumentation such as forceps or vacuum extraction.
Coding of vaginal deliveries requires a minimum of 3 codes; a principal diagnosis code, an outcome of delivery code and a weeks of gestation code. Fortunately, there are guidelines and notes to provide direction in properly assigning these codes. For delivery admissions, the principal diagnosis is the condition that prompted the admission.
A spontaneous delivery is a vaginal delivery that is manually assisted with no use of instrumentation such as forceps or vacuum extraction. In ICD-10-PCS, the code for this procedure will be the same every time, 10E0XZZ. Looking at the table below you can see that there is only one option for the value for each character in the code.

O80Code O80 Encounter for full term uncomplicated delivery is assigned as the principal diagnosis for delivery admissions that meet the following criteria (ICD-10-CM Coding Guideline I.C. 15. n): Vaginal delivery at full term.
Spontaneous vaginal delivery ( SVD ) is one which occurs when a pregnant woman goes into labor without the use of drugs or other techniques to induce labor and she delivers her baby through the vagina (birth canal) without forceps, vacuum extraction or a cesarean section.
As a result the simple ICD-9-CM procedure code for labor induction, 73.4 (“Medical Induction of Labor”) has been replaced with the rather generic and opaque ICD-10-PCS procedure code: 3E033VJ (“Introduction of other hormone into peripheral vein, percutaneous approach”).
59400included in the Global CPT codes of 59400 (Vaginal delivery) or 59510 (Cesarean delivery). the Global CPT codes of 59400 (Vaginal delivery) or 59510 (Cesarean delivery).
O80ICD-10 code O80 for Encounter for full-term uncomplicated delivery is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium .
Some of the most common are: Vaginal Birth. Natural Birth. Scheduled Cesarean.
Expert. Insertion of any cervical dilator such as laminaria, prostaglandins or a foley bulb into the endocervix to stimulate the dilation of the cervical canal should be submitted with CPT code 59200.
What is the latent phase of labour? The start of labour is called the latent phase. This is when your cervix becomes soft and thin as it gets ready to open up (dilate) for your baby to be born. For this to happen, you'll start having contractions, which may be irregular and vary in frequency, strength and length.
After the procedure. In most cases, labor induction leads to a vaginal birth. A failed induction, one in which the procedure doesn't lead to a vaginal birth, might require another induction or a C-section.
The 59510 is for routine care and 59514 is delivery only.
If the ob-gyn destroys two small lesions, you would usually report 56501. But if he destroys two invasive lesions, the physician might consider this extensive and use 56515. Generally, however, destroying more than three lesions places you in the extensive range, and you would submit 56515.
The 0500F code is used for intital prenatal care visit with the provider. The 0501F is the prenatal flow sheet documented, which I do not use .

A spontaneous vaginal delivery is a vaginal delivery that happens on its own, without requiring doctors to use tools to help pull the baby out. This occurs after a pregnant woman goes through labor. Labor opens, or dilates, her cervix to at least 10 centimeters.
Vaginal delivery is the most common and safest type of childbirth. You'll probably hear the term “natural childbirth” used to describe a vaginal delivery without medication for pain or to start or speed up labor. Some mothers will still choose to have other medical help during labor like a monitor for the baby's heart.
Labor happens in four stages:First stage: Dilation of the cervix (mouth of the uterus)Second stage: Delivery of the baby.Third stage: Afterbirth where you push out the placenta.Fourth stage: Recovery.
O80 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of encounter for full-term uncomplicated delivery. The code O80 is valid during the fiscal year 2022 from October 01, 2021 through September 30, 2022 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.

ICD-10 Index. Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00–O99) Note: CODES FROM THIS CHAPTER ARE FOR USE ONLY ON MATERNAL RECORDS, NEVER ON NEWBORN RECORDS
Note. Z codes represent reasons for encounters. A corresponding procedure code must accompany a Z code if a procedure is performed. 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:
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM O80 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Trimesters are counted from the first day of the last menstrual period. They are defined as follows: 1st trimester- less than 14 weeks 0 days. 2nd trimester- 14 weeks 0 days to less than 28 weeks 0 days. 3rd trimester- 28 weeks 0 days until delivery. Type 1 Excludes.
Obstetric cases require diagnosis codes from chapter 15 of ICD-10-CM, “Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Puerperium.” It includes categories O00–O9A arranged in the following blocks:
Codes from this category also require either a fifth or sixth character specifying the trimester. Code O30.0, Twin pregnancy, is further classified by whether the twin pregnancy is monoamniotic/monochorionic, conjoined twins, other twin pregnancy, or unspecified twin pregnancy.
Because certain obstetric conditions or complications occur during certain trimesters, not all conditions include codes for all three trimesters.
The assignment of the final character for trimester is based on the trimester for the current admission or encounter. This guideline applies to the assignment of trimester for pre-existing conditions as well as those that develop during or are due to the pregnancy.
Similar to ICD-9-CM, ICD-10-CM obstetric codes in chapter 15 have sequencing priority over codes from other chapters. Additional codes from other chapters may be used in addition to chapter 15 codes to further specify conditions.
Outcome of delivery codes (Z37.0–Z37.9) are intended for use as an additional code to identify the outcome of delivery on the mother’s records. These codes are not to be used on subsequent records or on the newborn record.
There are a total of 12 root operations (third character) in the obstetrics section: Change (2): taking out or off a device from a body part and putting back an identical or similar device in or on the same body part without cutting or puncturing the skin or a mucous membrane.
