P02.1 — Newborn affected by other forms of placental separation and hemorrhage
P02.1 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for newborn affected by other forms of placental separation and hemorrhage. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Inclusion terms
Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.
- Newborn affected by abruptio placenta
- Newborn affected by accidental hemorrhage
- Newborn affected by antepartum hemorrhage
- Newborn affected by damage to placenta from amniocentesis, cesarean delivery or surgical induction
- Newborn affected by maternal blood loss
- Newborn affected by premature separation of placenta
Other codes that can never be billed with P02.1
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at P02.1. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading P02.1 alone.
Risk adjustment
P02.1 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
P02.1 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.

How P02.1 is indexed
Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to P02.1.

- Newborn›affected by›hemorrhage(antepartum)
