General Rules for Obstetric Cases  1) Codes from Chapter 15 and sequencing priority  Obstetric cases require codes from Chapter 15, codes in the range O00-09a, Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Puerperium. Chapter 15 codes have sequencing priority over codes from other chapters. Additional codes from other chapters may be used in conjunction with Chapter 15 codes to further specify conditions. Should the provider document that the pregnancy is incidental to the encounter, then code Z33.1, Pregnant state, incidental, should be used in place of any Chapter 15 codes. It is the provider’s responsibility to state that the condition being treated is not affecting the pregnancy.  2) Chapter 15 Codes used only on the maternal record  Chapter 15 codes are to be used only on the maternal record, never on the record of the newborn.

5. 5 Copyright © 2012 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. CM Guideline Alert 15.a.3 Final Character for Trimester  The majority of codes in Chapter 15 have a final character indicating the trimester of pregnancy. The timeframes for the trimesters are indicated at the beginning of the chapter. If trimester is not a component of a code it is because the condition always occurs in a specific trimester, or the concept of trimester of pregnancy is not applicable. Certain codes have characters for only certain trimesters because the condition does not occur in all trimesters, but it may occur in more than just one.  Assignment of the final character for trimester should be based on the providers documentation of the trimester (or number of weeks) for the current admission/encounter. This applies to the assignment of trimester for pre-existing conditions as well as those that develop during or are due to the pregnancy. The provider’s documentation of the number of weeks of pregnancy may be used to assign the appropriate code identifying the trimester.  Whenever delivery occurs during the current admission, and there is an “in childbirth” option for the obstetric complication being coded, the “in childbirth” code should be assigned.

The peripartum period is defined as the last month of pregnancy to 5 months postpartum. 2) Peripartum and postpartum complications A postpartum complication is any complication occurring within the 6-week period. 3) pregnancy-related complications after 6-week period Chapter 15 codes may also be used to describe pregnancy –related complications after the peripartum or postpartum period if the provider documents that a condition is pregnancy related.

18. 18 Copyright © 2012 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. CM Guideline Alert 16.d. Prematurity and Fetal Growth Retardation  Providers utilize different criteria in determining prematurity. A code for prematurity should not be assigned unless it is documented. Assignment of codes in categories P05, Disorders of newborn related to slow fetal growth and fetal malnutrition, and P07, Disorders of newborn related to short gestation and low birth weight, not elsewhere classified, should be based on the recorded birth weight and estimated gestational age. Codes from category P05 should not be assigned with codes from category P07.

19. 19 Copyright © 2012 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. CM Guideline Alert 16.e. Low Birth Weight and Immaturity Status  Codes from category P07, disorders of newborn related to short gestation and low birth weight, not elsewhere classified, are for use for a child or adult who was premature or had a low birth weight as a newborn and this is affecting the patient’s current health status.

20. 20 Copyright © 2012 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. Special Note When both birth weight and gestational age of the newborn are available, both should be coded with birth weight sequenced before gestational age.
