P74Other transitory neonatal electrolyte and metabolic disturbances

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

P74 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other transitory neonatal electrolyte and metabolic disturbances. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Other codes that can never be billed with P74

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at P74. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading P74 alone.

  • P84Other problems with newborn
  • E72.20Disorder of urea cycle metabolism, unspecified
  • E70.2Disorders of tyrosine metabolism
  • E86Volume depletion

Risk adjustment

P74 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 to one of these instead P74

9 child codes. Green means billable.
