Other respiratory conditions originating in the perinatal period (P28) ICD-10-CM
The P28 code range covers other respiratory conditions originating in the perinatal period with 24 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. 19 of them are billable and valid for claim submission in fiscal year 2027, and the category headers group them but cannot themselves be billed.

A "code also" note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction.

About the P28 Code Range
These conditions affect a newborn’s breathing and originate around birth.
P28.0 and P28.1 distinguish primary from other or unspecified atelectasis, meaning lung nonexpansion. P28.3 separates primary sleep apnea, or pauses in breathing during sleep, into central, obstructive, mixed, unspecified, and other types. P28.4 makes similar distinctions for other newborn apnea.
Separate subdivisions identify cyanotic attacks, respiratory failure, respiratory arrest, and other or unspecified respiratory conditions of the newborn.
