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 4 more specific codes instead:

  • P07.0 Extremely low birth weight newborn (also a header)
  • P07.1 Other low birth weight newborn (also a header)
  • P07.2 Extreme immaturity of newborn (also a header)
  • P07.3 Preterm [premature] newborn [other] (also a header)
