Z34Encounter for supervision of normal pregnancy

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

Z34 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for encounter for supervision of normal pregnancy. 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.

  • any complication of pregnancy (O00-O9A)
  • encounter for pregnancy test (Z32.0-)
  • encounter for supervision of high risk pregnancy (O09.-)

Risk adjustment

Z34 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 Z34

3 child codes. Green means billable.
