Twin A was born alive, therefore you can use 644.21 (early onset of delivery before 37 completed weeks of gestation). You can also add a second code for premature rupture of membranes (658.11).
ICD-10-CM Coding Rules. O42.02 is applicable to maternity patients aged 12 - 55 years inclusive. Applicable To. Premature rupture of membranes at or after 37 completed weeks of gestation, onset of labor within 24 hours of rupture. The following code (s) above O42.02 contain annotation back-references.
The condition when a patient who is beyond 37 weeks gestation presents with rupture of membranes prior to the onset of labor. Rupture of membranes is diagnosed by speculum vaginal examination of the cervix and vaginal cavity, which will show pooling of fluid in the vagina or leakage of fluid from the cervix.
Full term premature rupture of membranes with onset of labor within 24 hours of rupture. Full-term premature rupture of membranes , onset of labor within 24 hours of rupture. Premature rupture of membranes in full term pregnancy with onset of labor within 24 hours of rupture.
O42.113 …… third trimester. O42.119 …… unspecified trimester. O42.12 Full-term premature rupture of membranes, onset of labor more than 24 hours following rupture. O42.9 Premature rupture of membranes, unspecified as to length of time between rupture and onset of labor O42.90 …… unspecified weeks of gestation.
919 for Preterm premature rupture of membranes, unspecified as to length of time between rupture and onset of labor, unspecified trimester is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium .
Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is a rupture (breaking open) of the membranes (amniotic sac) before labor begins. If PROM occurs before 37 weeks of pregnancy, it is called preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). PROM occurs in about 8 to 10 percent of all pregnancies.
Spontaneous rupture of membranes (ROM) is a normal component of labor and delivery. Premature ROM (PROM) refers to rupture of the fetal membranes prior to the onset of labor irrespective of gestational age.
Sometimes a woman's waters break before labour starts. This is known as pre-labour spontaneous rupture of the membranes (SRM). You will need to see a midwife or attend hospital to confirm that your waters have broken.
Typically, at the beginning of or during labor your membranes will rupture — also known as your water breaking. If your water breaks before labor starts, it's called prelabor rupture of membranes (PROM). Previously it was known as premature rupture of membranes.
Corticosteroids should be given to patients with preterm PROM between 24 and 32 weeks' gestation to decrease the risk of intraventricular hemorrhage, respiratory distress syndrome, and necrotizing enterocolitis.
When a hole or tear forms in the sac, it's called a rupture of the membranes. Most women describe this by saying their "water broke." Your membranes can break by themselves. This is called a spontaneous rupture of the membranes. It most often happens after active labour has started.
Stripping the membranes is a way to induce labor. It involves your doctor sweeping their (gloved) finger between the thin membranes of the amniotic sac in your uterus. It's also known as a membrane sweep. This motion helps separate the sac.
Amniotomy, also known as artificial rupture of membranes (AROM) or colloquially known as "breaking the water," is the intentional rupture of the amniotic sac by an obstetrical provider. This procedure has several indications and is commonly performed during labor management.
Prelabor rupture of the membranes may occur near the due date (at 37 weeks or later, when pregnancy is considered full term) or earlier (called preterm prelabor rupture if it occurs earlier than 37 weeks). If rupture is preterm, delivery is also likely to be too early ( preterm.
How is PPROM diagnosed?pH (acid-base) balance testing. The pH balance of amniotic fluid is different from vaginal fluid and urine. Your healthcare provider will put the fluid on a test strip to check the balance.Looking at a sample under a microscope. When amniotic fluid is dry, it has a fern-like pattern.
658.11 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of premature rupture of membranes, delivered, with or without mention of antepartum condition. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
The following crosswalk between ICD-9 to ICD-10 is based based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMS) information:
The Medicare Code Editor (MCE) detects and reports errors in the coding of claims data. The following ICD-9 Code Edits are applicable to this code:
While childbirth usually goes well, complications can happen. They can cause a risk to the mother, baby, or both. Possible complications include
General Equivalence Map Definitions The ICD-9 and ICD-10 GEMs are used to facilitate linking between the diagnosis codes in ICD-9-CM and the new ICD-10-CM code set. The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.

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. supervision of normal pregnancy ( Z34.-)
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM O42.02 became effective on October 1, 2021.
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.
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.
The most commonly missed risk-adjusting factor is acute blood loss anemia (ABLA). When I evaluated an OB service line and determined the reason the case mix index (CMI) was so low compared to peers, the underlying cause was that they never documented ABLA. The chair told me, “all our patients have ABLA!” I emphatically agreed. My recommendation was to use a combined threshold estimated blood loss (EBL) and drop in hematocrit, as well as to document the treatment or monitoring of the ABLA. If they were not going to transfuse, I suggested documentation of iron therapy, and repeat hemoglobin/hematocrit levels were planned. Coupling this with education noting that sustaining ABLA is not a patient safety indicator was sufficient to change behavior and improve CMI.
Did complications arise during the delivery or in the postpartum period (defined as from delivery to six weeks post-term)? “Puerperium” means the period between childbirth and the return of the uterus to its normal size. Be sure to select the correct code that designates trimester in childbirth (during labor), or in puerperium (postpartum).
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.
