Questions About P00.82Overview
Is P00.82 (Newborn affected by other maternal conditions) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report newborn affected by (positive) maternal group B streptococcus (GBS) colonization on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Is P00.82 exempt from POA reporting?
Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for newborn affected by (positive) maternal group B streptococcus (GBS) colonization on inpatient claims.
Footnotes
[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
