1 inclusion term · 3 Excludes1 · 1 use-additional code

Inpatient Payment Groups (MS-DRG)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

MS-DRGs this diagnosis helps define, as principal or secondary, per the CMS ICD-10-CM/PCS MS-DRG Definitions Manual v43, Appendix B.

  • MS-DRG 817 — OTHER ANTEPARTUM DIAGNOSES WITH O.R. PROCEDURES WITH MCC (MDC 14)
  • MS-DRG 818 — OTHER ANTEPARTUM DIAGNOSES WITH O.R. PROCEDURES WITH CC (MDC 14)
  • MS-DRG 819 — OTHER ANTEPARTUM DIAGNOSES WITH O.R. PROCEDURES WITHOUT CC/MCC (MDC 14)
  • MS-DRG 831 — OTHER ANTEPARTUM DIAGNOSES WITHOUT O.R. PROCEDURES WITH MCC (MDC 14)
  • MS-DRG 832 — OTHER ANTEPARTUM DIAGNOSES WITHOUT O.R. PROCEDURES WITH CC (MDC 14)
  • MS-DRG 833 — OTHER ANTEPARTUM DIAGNOSES WITHOUT O.R. PROCEDURES WITHOUT CC/MCC (MDC 14)

A diagnosis appearing in a group's logic does not by itself determine the DRG assigned to a stay; the grouper uses the full claim.

Coding instructions

Official Tabular Instructional Notes: the inclusion, exclusion and sequencing notes published for O01.0 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list, quoted as published.

Source: CMS/CDC — ICD-10-CM Tabular ListRelease: FY2026Effective: October 1, 2025

Notes without a marker are published on O01.0 itself; “inherited from” names the category or block whose note applies here.

Inclusion Terms

Alternative terms the tabular list files under this code.

  • Complete hydatidiform mole

Excludes1 — Not Coded Here

Conditions generally not reported together with this code (Excludes1) -- an error unless the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).

Use Additional Code

Supplementary codes the tabular list directs you to add.

  • Use additional code from category O08 to identify any associated complication.

Coder workflow for O01.0

MedCoder structured workflow — derived from this code’s own official record

Before you code O01.0

  1. Confirm the condition is documented as complicating the pregnancy, childbirth, or the puerperium, and check the trimester where the code carries one and the fetus character where the category requires it. Chapter 15 codes belong on the maternal record only and take sequencing priority over codes from other chapters. It is the provider’s responsibility to state that a condition is not affecting the pregnancy; the trimester is assigned from the documentation (Guidelines I.C.15.a, I.C.15.a.1, I.C.15.a.3).

    Guide: How to choose an ICD-10-CM code →

  2. Check the Excludes1 note: if the documentation supports a condition named there, do not simply proceed with O01.0. Excludes1 conditions are not reported together with this code unless the record shows they are unrelated (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

    See the official tabular notes

Choose the right path

  1. Does the documentation support a condition named in O01.0’s Excludes1 note?
    Yes → Do not simply proceed: review the excluded code. Both are reported only when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated.
    No → Continue.

    ReviewD39.2, O31.1, O31.3

Consider O01.0. Then work the Use Additional Code note, and confirm the code is valid for the date of service in the Verify section.

Documentation check

The provider’s diagnostic statement
Codes are assigned from the provider’s documented diagnosis, not from clinical criteria, test values or a medication list (Guidelines I.A.19).
Trimester
Assigned from the documented trimester at the encounter, or the trimester in which the condition developed for inpatient stays (Guidelines I.C.15.a.3).
The conditions the Use Additional Code note names
Reported with this code when documented; a conditional instruction (“if applicable”, “if known”) applies only when the record supports it.

Official instructions as workflow

  • Excludes1 — check before selecting O01.0(3 notes)

    Coding workflow: If the documentation supports a condition named in this note, do not simply proceed with O01.0: the two are not reported together. The one exception is when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated to each other.

    CompareD39.2, O31.1, O31.3

    See the official tabular notes · Guidelines I.A.12.a

  • Use Additional Code — after identifying O01.0(1 note)

    Coding workflow: Check whether the documentation supports the additional code(s) the note names, and report them with O01.0 when it does. Where the instruction is conditional (“if applicable”, “if known”), it applies only when the record documents the condition.

Coding decision scenarios

Pattern scenarios for this code’s structure — decision rules, not clinical cases

Documentation: Both the condition O01.0 describes and a condition named in its Excludes1 note are documented for the same encounter.

Coding question: Can both codes be reported?

Path: Review the Excludes1 note and the excluded code, and look for a provider statement on whether the two conditions are related.

Reason: Excludes1 means the two are not coded together; the exception is when the record shows the conditions are unrelated to each other (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

ReviewD39.2, O31.1, O31.3

Documentation: A condition the Use Additional Code note names is documented.

Coding question: Is a second code reported with O01.0?

Path: Review the Use Additional Code note and the code it names.

Reason: The additional code is reported when the record documents the condition; a conditional instruction applies only when its condition is met (Guidelines I.A.13).

ReviewO08

Every row is derived from this code’s own record — its title, tabular notes, 7th-character family and same-category siblings — with fixed MedCoder wording; nothing is inferred about a patient. The official notes and guideline text are in the sections each row links to, and they control.

Indexed Clinical Terms (4)

Official source data — entries quoted as published, in the Index’s own lookup phrasing

Clinical term phrases from the official ICD-10-CM Index to Diseases and Injuries that map to this code. These are alphabetic-index entries shown as the Index writes them — lookup phrasing, not necessarily the wording of a final diagnosis.

Verify Before Coding

  • Age-restricted: the Medicare Code Editor lists this as a maternity (age 9-64) diagnosis; other ages are presumed incorrect.

These codes’ tabular lists name this diagnosis as distinct — both may be reported when both are documented.

Referenced by 6 Code First instructions: I47 — Paroxysmal tachycardia (via O01.-), I49 — Other cardiac arrhythmias (via O01.-), I50 — Heart failure (via O01.-), I74 — Arterial embolism and thrombosis (via O01.-), I80 — Phlebitis and thrombophlebitis (via O01.-), I82 — Other venous embolism and thrombosis (via O01.-).

Each of these codes carries a Code First note naming this condition — when that code is reported, THIS code is sequenced first, ahead of it.

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

FY2026 MS-DRG: not on the CMS CC/MCC list — as a secondary diagnosis this code does not change MS-DRG severity for that release.

Named in the grouper logic of 6 MS-DRGs: DRG 817 (MDC 14), DRG 818 (MDC 14), DRG 819 (MDC 14), DRG 831 (MDC 14), DRG 832 (MDC 14), DRG 833 (MDC 14).

From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual (Appendices B and C). Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
