OB Diagnoses Coding with ICD-10-CM 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: O00–O08, Pregnancy with abortive outcome
Complete or unspecified spontaneous abortion without complication. Loss of the products of conception from the uterus before the fetus is viable; spontaneous abortion. The natural premature expulsion from the uterus of the products of conception, the embryo, or non-viable fetus.
Procedures performed following a delivery or abortion for curettage of the endometrium or evacuation of retained products of conception are all coded in the Obstetrics section, to the root operation Extraction and the body part Products of Conception, Retained.
ICD-10-CM Code for Complete or unspecified spontaneous abortion without complication O03. 9.
O03.4ICD-10 Code for Incomplete spontaneous abortion without complication- O03. 4- Codify by AAPC.
The code descriptor for 69.02 is Dilation and curettage following delivery and abortion.
O03.4* Incomplete spontaneous abortion without complication. Incomplete EPL: Fetal or embryonic demise has occurred, and gestational tissue remains in the uterus. Typically with little or no vaginal bleeding and evidence that the nonviable gestation has remained in the uterus for a period of time.
O02. 1 - Missed abortion | ICD-10-CM.
An incomplete abortion is the partial loss of the products of conception within the first 20 weeks. Incomplete abortion usually presents with moderate to severe vaginal bleeding, which may be associated with lower abdominal and/or pelvic pain.
2022 ICD-10-PCS Procedure Code 0FT44ZZ: Resection of Gallbladder, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach.
ABORTIFACIENTS. An abortifacient is any substance that is used to terminate a pregnancy (Box 17-2). Historically, lead and quinine have been used as abortifacients, but now over-the-counter preparations such as acetaminophen, aspirin, iron, and herbal preparations are more commonly used to induce abortion.
Extraction of Products of Conception, LowICD-10-PCS Code 10D00Z1 - Extraction of Products of Conception, Low, Open Approach - Codify by AAPC.
A missed abortion is also known as a missed miscarriage or spontaneous abortion. It's a miscarriage in which the fetus didn't form or is no longer developing, but the placenta and embryonic tissues are still in your uterus. A missed abortion is not an elective abortion.
Spontaneous abortion is a pregnancy loss before 20 weeks of gestational age. Approximately half of the miscarriages are due to unknown genetic abnormalities. Alcohol or drug use, infections, chronic disease, environmental exposures, and structural uterine abnormalities are other important risk factors.
Inevitable abortion: Symptoms cannot be stopped and a miscarriage will happen. Infected (septic) abortion: The lining of the womb (uterus) and any remaining products of conception become infected. Missed abortion: The pregnancy is lost and the products of conception do not leave the body.
Signs of an Incomplete AbortionModerate to severe vaginal bleeding (saturating more than one pad an hour)Lower abdominal and/or pain.Pain in the back, buttocks, genitalia, and perineum.Passing blood clots.A fever.
But sometimes the body has trouble passing the tissue, and the miscarriage remains incomplete until a woman seeks treatment. If the tissue isn't removed, the incomplete miscarriage can cause very heavy bleeding, prolonged bleeding, or an infection.
Common symptoms include vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain. Uncomplicated incomplete abortion can result after an induced or spontaneous abortion (i.e. miscarriage); the management in both cases is the same. Incomplete abortion may be managed expectantly, medically or surgically (vacuum aspiration).
Signs of an incomplete miscarriage bleeding that carries on and doesn't settle down. passing blood clots. increasing tummy pain, which may feel like cramps or contractions. a raised temperature (fever) and flu-like symptoms.
The Obstetrics section is one of the smaller sections in ICD-10-PCS. It contains a single body system value, pregnancy (0), 12 root operation values, and three body part values: Products of Conception (0), Products of Conception, Retained (1), and Products of Conception, Ectopic (2). Because there is only one body system and 12 root operations, there are only 12 tables available in the Obstetrics section from which to construct procedure codes.
Example: Amniocentesis is coded to the products of conception body part in the Obstetrics section.
It should be noted that only two of these root operations are unique to obstetrics – Abortion and Delivery. As with all root operations, Abortion and Delivery have precise definitions that must be applied to ensure that the correct code is assigned. The root operation Extraction is also important because it is used to report Cesarean deliveries and vaginal deliveries in which the use of forceps or vacuum extraction is required.
The Obstetrics section is a good section with which to begin ICD-10-PCS training because of the relatively limited number of root operations and tables. While there are two root operations that apply only to Obstetrics, the other 10 root operations also are used in the Medical and Surgical section. Learning the definitions of those 10 root operations common to both sections and learning how these definitions are applied in the Obstetrics section will help coders understand how they are used and applied in the Medical and Surgical section as well. In the process of learning ICD-10-PCS Obstetrics coding, coders also will become familiar with the format of the tables and will be able to learn how to easily use these tables to construct a code.
Procedures performed on the products of conception are coded to the Obstetrics section . Procedures performed on the pregnant female other than the products of conception are coded to the appropriate root operation in the Medical and Surgical section.
Do not report the root operation Abortion for manually assisted spontaneous abortion. Manually assisted spontaneous abortion is reported with the root operation Delivery (E).
There are limited coding guidelines currently available for ICD-10-PCS. In fact, only the Medical and Surgical section and Obstetrics section have any guidelines at all. For the Obstetric section, the available guidelines include a single guideline related to products of conception and a single guideline related to procedures following delivery or abortion. These guidelines are:
Loss of the products of conception from the uterus before the fetus is viable; spontaneous abortion.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM O03 became effective on October 1, 2021.
polycystic ovary syndrome. signs of a miscarriage can include vaginal spotting or bleeding, abdominal pain or cramping, and fluid or tissue passing from the vagina. Although vaginal bleeding is a common symptom of miscarriage, many women have spotting early in their pregnancy but do not miscarry.
code from category Z3A, Weeks of gestation, to identify the specific week of the pregnancy, if known. A miscarriage is the loss of pregnancy from natural causes before the 20th week of pregnancy. Most miscarriages occur very early in the pregnancy, often before a woman even knows she is pregnant.
Loss of the products of conception from the uterus before the fetus is viable; spontaneous abortion.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM O03.9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Although vaginal bleeding is a common symptom of miscarriage, many women have spotting early in their pregnancy but do not miscarry.
To treat missed or incomplete spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) Extraction Products of Conception, Retained
post‐abortion period are all coded in the Medical and Surgicalsection, to the root operation Extraction and the body part Endometrium.”
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:
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.
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.
