Questions About O67Overview
Is O67 a billable code?
No. This is a category header that groups the codes for labor and delivery complicated by intrapartum hemorrhage, not elsewhere classified, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for labor and delivery complicated by intrapartum hemorrhage, not elsewhere classified need a more specific code from this category, such as O67.0, O67.8, and O67.9.
Can O67 be reported with a code from O46?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note on O67 lists "antepartum hemorrhage NEC (O46.-)". 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).
