P00.6 vs P03.4
P00.6 (Newborn affected by surgical procedure on mother) compared with P03.4 (Newborn affected by Cesarean delivery), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.
Can these codes be reported together?
No — do not report together. P00.6 carries an Excludes1 note covering P03.4: “Cesarean delivery for present delivery (P03.4)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
