Newborn affected by maternal conditions that may be unrelated to present pregnancy (P00)

The ICD-10 codes beginning with P00 classify newborns affected by various maternal health conditions that may not be related to the current pregnancy. These codes help document how maternal diseases or procedures impact the newborn’s health immediately after birth.

Each subcategory under P00 specifies different maternal conditions influencing the newborn, such as maternal hypertensive disorders (P00.0), renal diseases (P00.1), infectious diseases including TORCH infections (P00.2), and nutritional disorders like vitamin B12 deficiency (P00.4). Codes also cover newborn effects from maternal injuries (P00.5), surgical procedures (P00.6), and other medical interventions (P00.7). Some codes address more specific causes, like periodontal disease (P00.81) or maternal group B streptococcus colonization (P00.82). The category includes miscellaneous maternal conditions affecting the newborn (P00.89) and unspecified maternal conditions (P00.9). Knowing these codes aids medical coders in accurately capturing neonatal complications stemming from maternal health issues documented by synonyms such as "neonatal disorder due to maternal hypertension" or "neonatal chlamydial infection," corresponding to their official ICD-10 code for precise health records and reporting.

Instructional Notations

Code First

Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.

  • any current condition in newborn

Type 2 Excludes

A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
