P92Feeding problems of newborn

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

P92 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for feeding problems of newborn. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

  • eating disorders (F50.-)

Excludes2 — not included here, but may coexist

The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.

  • feeding problems in child over 28 days old (R63.3-)

Other codes that can never be billed with P92

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at P92. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading P92 alone.

  • P92.09Other vomiting of newborn
  • R11Nausea and vomiting
  • R62.51Failure to thrive (child)
  • F50Eating disorders

Risk adjustment

P92 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 P92

9 child codes. Green means billable.
