Questions About O99.810Overview

What is the ICD-10 code for abnormal glucose complicating pregnancy?

The ICD-10-CM code for abnormal glucose complicating pregnancy is O99.810 (sometimes written as O99810). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Is O99.810 a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report abnormal glucose complicating pregnancy on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What MS-DRG does O99.810 group to?

When abnormal glucose complicating pregnancy is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 833, 832, 831, 819, 818, 817, with relative weights from 0.5000 to 1.7586 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Who can O99.810 be reported for?

The Medicare Code Editor checks abnormal glucose complicating pregnancy against patient demographics: this code is intended for maternity cases (age 9 through 64). Claims outside these limits are flagged as inconsistent.

Can O99.810 be reported with a code from O24.4?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at O99.81, which applies to O99.810, lists "gestational diabetes (O24.4-)". 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).
