P00.8Newborn affected by other maternal conditions

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

P00.8 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for newborn affected by other maternal conditions. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above P00.8

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of P00.8, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on P00 Newborn affected by maternal conditions that may be unrelated to present pregnancy

  • encounter for observation of newborn for suspected diseases and conditions ruled out (Z05.-)
  • newborn affected by maternal complications of pregnancy (P01.-)
  • newborn affected by maternal endocrine and metabolic disorders (P70-P74)
  • newborn affected by noxious substances transmitted via placenta or breast milk (P04.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with P00.8

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at P00.8. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading P00.8 alone.

  • P00.2Newborn affected by maternal infectious and parasitic diseases

Risk adjustment

P00.8 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.

Code history

P00.8 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.
