I have selected codes 647.90 and 998.59 to code a post-partum c-section infection. I could not find a more specific code in the pregnancy complications or delivery section. We didn't deliver the baby; patient is post-partum and presented to our facility for treatment of CP.

Does anyone else have a better code than the above?

Thanks!
