P52.0 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 791, 793. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a complication or comorbidity (CC) and moves an inpatient stay to a higher severity level within its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 48 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as early neonatal intracerebral hemorrhage. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Hemorrhagic and hematologic disorders of newborn.
For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, P52.0 maps to CMS-HCC Category 248 (Intracranial Hemorrhage) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.239 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2026.

Patient EducationClinical
Brain Diseases
Your brain is the control center of your body. It controls your thoughts, memory, speech, and movement. It regulates the function of many organs. It's part of your nervous system, which also includes your spinal cord and peripheral nerves. The nervous system sends signals between your brain and the rest of the body.

Questions About P52.0Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn?
The ICD-10-CM code for intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn is P52.0 (sometimes written as P520). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Is P52.0 (Intracranial nontraumatic hemorrhage of newborn) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does P52.0 group to?
When intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 791, 793, with relative weights from 4.0590 to 4.1696 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is P52.0 a CC or MCC?
CMS lists P52.0 as a CC (complication or comorbidity) for FY 2026. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, it moves the inpatient stay to a higher-weighted DRG within its severity family. It does not count when the principal diagnosis is one of the 48 closely related codes in its exclusion list.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of P52.0?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn converts to ICD-9-CM 772.11 (NB intraven hem,grade i). The mapping is a direct match.
What HCC is P52.0?
P52.0 (intraventricular (nontraumatic) hemorrhage, grade 1, of newborn) maps to CMS-HCC Category 248 (Intracranial Hemorrhage), commonly written as HCC 248, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2026. It does not map to any RxHCC in the Part D prescription drug model.
Does P52.0 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, P52.0 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.239 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.081 to 0.377 depending on the payment segment). HCC 248 sits at the top of its hierarchy, so no other condition category supersedes it. See the full factor table on the HCC 248 category page.
