Wiki Undesired Fertility

[StephanieHouston]

Can anyone help me with a diagnosis code for this one?

I have an order for pre-procedure labs for a patient who is due to deliver a baby and is to have a tubal ligation afterwards. The diagnosis on the order is "undesired fertility". No one I've asked can come up with a code for this.

It is a V code for contraceptive management

I use V25.2 sterilization.

Have to go with the code V25.2 (Sterilization) because after delivery the physician performed the tubal ligation so the patient came for sterilization procedure.

I have been using V25.2 for this documentation
