O08.3 — Shock following ectopic and molar pregnancy

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

O08.3 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for shock following ectopic and molar pregnancy. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Circulatory collapse following ectopic and molar pregnancy
Shock (postprocedural) following ectopic and molar pregnancy

Other codes that can never be billed with O08.3

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at O08.3. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading O08.3 alone.

R55Syncope and collapse
R57Shock, not elsewhere classified
T79.4Traumatic shock
T79.4XXATraumatic shock, initial encounter
T79.4XXDTraumatic shock, subsequent encounter
T79.4XXSTraumatic shock, sequela
T81.1Postprocedural shock

Risk adjustment

O08.3 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Medicare coverage

O08.3 is named in 2 Medicare coverage policies — 2 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
