Other complications of labor and delivery, not elsewhere classified

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 8 more specific codes instead:

O75.0 Maternal distress during labor and delivery
O75.1 Shock during or following labor and delivery
O75.2 Pyrexia during labor, not elsewhere classified
O75.3 Other infection during labor
O75.4 Other complications of obstetric surgery and procedures
O75.5 Delayed delivery after artificial rupture of membranes
O75.8 Other specified complications of labor and delivery (also a header)
O75.9 Complication of labor and delivery, unspecified

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
