- Billable — Valid for Submission
- MCC — Major Complication or Comorbidity
- Chronic Condition
O11.2 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pre-existing hypertension with pre-eclampsia, second trimester. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 817 through 819, 831 through 833. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a major complication or comorbidity (MCC) and places an inpatient stay in the highest severity level of its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 298 closely related codes. The code is restricted by the Medicare Code Editor to maternity cases (age 9 through 64). In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Hypertension and hypertensive-related conditions complicating pregnancy; childbirth; and the puerperium and Hypertension with complications and secondary hypertension.
