Wiki Code for twin deliveries, I'm desperate...

[com107]

One of the doctors I code for told me there is a specific CPT code for twin deliveries, which pays more. I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find one. Is anyone aware of this code? I’m desperate...

Are wanting a CPT or ICD-9 code?

To bill a vaginal twin delivery:
59400
59409-59
The decondary dx would be V27.2

For a cesarean twin delivery:
59510-22
The priamry dx would be what prompted the cesarean and the secondary dx would be
V27.2

I hope this helps

First Newborn 59400, 59409, 59410,
59610, 59612, or 59614

Subsequent Newborn(s) 59409 or 59612
considering it was a vaginal delivery

And you would have to add a 59 to the second procedure.
