If there is no indication (or more precisely, no medical indication –“OB going on vacation next week” probably isn’t really a legitimate indication), “O82, Encounter for cesarean delivery without indication” is the code.
There are O codes indicating that a condition in any other body system is impacting the pregnancy. If the rest of Chapter 15 doesn’t have a specific code, numerous “obstetric conditions not elsewhere classified which are complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium” can be found in O94-O9A.
As an example, a patient in the third trimester who was involved in a motor vehicle collision and brought in for observation who went on to deliver would warrant the “O9A.22, Injury, poisoning, and certain other consequences of external causes complicating childbirth” code. You then would add the codes that told the remainder of the story: what was injured, the circumstances of the incident, the outcome of the delivery, how many weeks pregnant she was, how she delivered, whether there any other complications, etc.
In that case, you only use Z39.0, Encounter for care and examination of mother immediately after delivery, since she didn’t actually deliver during this admission and wasn’t technically pregnant during this admission.
The primary diagnosis (PD) is always an “O” (for obstetrics) code. If she came in for an “unrelated” condition, there should be an O code – as a physician, I cannot recall a single patient who went on to deliver during an admission whose PD was not a complication of (or complicating) the pregnancy.
