Wiki induction of delivery for 19wk fetal demise

[tracylc10]

If a delivery was induced at 19wks for an intrauterine fetal demise, is the delivery coded 59400?

Thank you.

Looking at some older posts and a google search it must make it to 20 weeks 0 days to bill for a delivery. I believe 59855 is the code. Here is a link i found on Supercoder
