O22.91

O22.91 — Venous complication in pregnancy, unspecified, first trimester

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

O22.91 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for venous complication in pregnancy, unspecified, first trimester. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above O22.91

These are not written on O22.91, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing O22.91 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on O22 — Venous complications and hemorrhoids in pregnancy

venous complications of:
abortion NOS (O03.9)
ectopic or molar pregnancy (O08.7)
failed attempted abortion (O07.35)
induced abortion (O04.85)
spontaneous abortion (O03.89)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above O22.91

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of O22.91, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on O22 — Venous complications and hemorrhoids in pregnancy

obstetric pulmonary embolism (O88.-)
venous complications and hemorrhoids of childbirth and the puerperium (O87.-)

Risk adjustment

O22.91 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 history

O22.91 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
