ICD 10 Code O80 shows Encounter for full-term uncomplicated delivery. There is a note that states: ...This code is for use as a single diagnosis code and is not to be used with any other code from chapter 15.
I have an OP Note for a patient that was induced at 39 weeks. She had a diagnosis of Oligohydramnios and Small for gestational age fetus. The reason for induction is because her amniotic flud dropped to 4 and during an amniotomy there was no fluid noted. The delvery however went well, it was quick, no lacerations or problems of any kind. I cannot determine which code to use for the delivery. The Oligohydramnios O41.030 is third trimester, not delivery. The small for age fetus O36.5930 is the same situation, it is not a delivery code. The physician has also been adding O09.93 "Supervision of high risk pregnancy, unspecified, third trimester" to the office notes. How do I code a full term uncomplicated delivery with High Risk pregnancy?
