2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code P54Other neonatal hemorrhages
P54 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for other neonatal hemorrhages, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as P54.0, P54.1, P54.2, and P54.3.

Tabular List NotesGuidance
Coding notes and annotation back-references applicable to this code.
Type 1 Excludes
- newborn affected by intrauterine blood loss P50
- pulmonary hemorrhage originating in the perinatal period P26
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
Patient EducationClinical
Bleeding Disorders
Normally, if you get hurt, your body forms a blood clot to stop the bleeding. For blood to clot, your body needs cells called platelets and proteins known as clotting factors. If you have a bleeding disorder, you either do not have enough platelets or clotting factors or they don't work the way they should.
