Conditions this code covers.

  • gestational hypertension NOS
  • transient hypertension of pregnancy

Other codes that can never be billed with O13

  • I10Essential (primary) hypertension

O13 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.

Code to one of these instead O13

6 child codes. Green means billable.
