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:
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.
Because certain obstetric conditions or complications occur during certain trimesters, not all conditions include codes for all three trimesters.
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.
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.
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.

An assisted vaginal delivery is one that is accomplished with the assistance of instrumentation such as forceps or vacuum extraction. Just like a spontaneous delivery, this procedure is reported with a code from the Obstetrics section of ICD-10-PCS because it is a procedure performed on the fetus, which is considered a product of conception (see ICD-10-PCS coding guideline C1).
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.
This procedure is reported with a code from the Obstetrics section of ICD-10-PCS because it is a procedure performed on the fetus, which is considered a product of conception (see ICD-10-PCS coding guideline C1). The root operation for a spontaneous delivery is Delivery and the body part is Products of Conception. A delivery that only requires the physician to manually assist a spontaneous process takes place entirely outside the patient’s body, so the approach is External.
