O67.8 — Other intrapartum hemorrhage
O67.8 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for other intrapartum hemorrhage. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Inclusion terms
Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.
- Excessive intrapartum hemorrhage
Excludes1 inherited from the categories above O67.8
These are not written on O67.8, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing O67.8 with anything listed here is a denial.
Excludes2 inherited from the categories above O67.8
Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of O67.8, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.
Other codes that can never be billed with O67.8
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at O67.8. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading O67.8 alone.
- O46Antepartum hemorrhage, not elsewhere classified
Risk adjustment
O67.8 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
O67.8 is named in 1 Medicare coverage policy — 1 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
