Questions About O07Overview

What is the ICD-10 code for failed attempted termination of pregnancy?

O07 is the ICD-10-CM category for failed attempted termination of pregnancy, but it is a non-billable header: claims need a more specific code from this category, listed on this page.

Is O07 (Failed attempted termination of pregnancy) a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for failed attempted termination of pregnancy, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for failed attempted termination of pregnancy need a more specific code from this category, such as O07.0, O07.1, and O07.2.

Can O07 be reported with a code from O03.0?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note on O07 lists "incomplete spontaneous abortion (O03.0-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
