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, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does P00.82 group to?
When newborn affected by (positive) maternal group B streptococcus (GBS) colonization is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 951, 795, with relative weights from 0.2022 to 0.5574 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
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. The code appears in the Newborn affected by maternal factors and by complications of pregnancy, labor, and delivery (P00-P04) range of the CMS exempt list.

The Code First note at P00, which applies to P00.82, reads: any current condition in newborn. When one of these applies, it is sequenced before P00.82.
