O99.713 ICD-10-CM Code: Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue complicating pregnancy, third trimester

Billing Status: YES. This is a valid, specific, and billable ICD-10-CM reference.

Coding at a Glance

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 O99.713 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list, quoted as published.

Notes without a marker are published on O99.713 itself; “inherited from” names the category or block whose note applies here.

Includes

Conditions the official ICD-10-CM tabular list includes under this code.

  • conditions which complicate the pregnant state, are aggravated by the pregnancy or are a main reason for obstetric care

Source: inherited from O99

Excludes2 — Not Included Here

Conditions not covered by this code, but which may be reported alongside it when both are present.

Use Additional Code

Supplementary codes the tabular list directs you to add.

  • Use additional code to identify specific condition

Source: inherited from O99

Coder workflow for O99.713

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

Before you code O99.713

  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).

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

  • Excludes2 — not part of O99.713(3 notes)

    Coding workflow: The conditions named in this note are not included in O99.713. When the record documents both, both may be reported; the note is a boundary, not a prohibition.

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

  • Use Additional Code — after identifying O99.713(1 note)

    Coding workflow: Check whether the documentation supports the additional code(s) the note names, and report them with O99.713 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: A condition the Use Additional Code note names is documented.

Coding question: Is a second code reported with O99.713?

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).

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.

Code Overview

Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue complicating pregnancy, third trimester is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code (O99.713).

Verify Before Coding

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

Relationships & Classification

MedCoder structured relationships — computed from published CMS and AHRQ datasets

Other codes that name O99.713 or its code family, from the CMS ICD-10-CM tabular instructional notes. Tabular-note edges are stored at the code family level that carries each note.

Referenced by 10 Excludes2 notes: O20 — Hemorrhage in early pregnancy (via O99.-), O20-O29 — Other maternal disorders predominantly related to pregnancy (O20-O29) (via O99.-), O21 — Excessive vomiting in pregnancy (via O99.-), O22 — Venous complications and hemorrhoids in pregnancy (via O99.-), O23 — Infections of genitourinary tract in pregnancy (via O99.-), O24 — Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium (via O99.-), O25 — Malnutrition in pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (via O99.-), O26 — Maternal care for other conditions predominantly related to pregnancy (via O99.-), O28 — Abnormal findings on antenatal screening of mother (via O99.-), O29 — Complications of anesthesia during pregnancy (via O99.-).

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

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

Not on the CMS CC/MCC list — as a secondary diagnosis this code does not change MS-DRG severity.

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.
