7th character "1" — fetus 1
One of the following 7th characters is to be assigned to each code under category O64. 7th character 0 is for single gestations and multiple gestations where the fetus is unspecified. 7th characters 1 through 9 are for cases of multiple gestations to identify the fetus for which the code applies. The appropriate code from category O30, Multiple gestation, must also be assigned when assigning a code from category O64 that has a 7th character of 1 through 9.

Other codes that can never be billed with O64.2XX1
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at O64.2XX1. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading O64.2XX1 alone.
- O32Maternal care for malpresentation of fetus
Risk adjustment
O64.2XX1 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.
