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

Submit one of these 5 more specific codes instead:

  • P76.0 Meconium plug syndrome
  • P76.1 Transitory ileus of newborn
  • P76.2 Intestinal obstruction due to inspissated milk
  • P76.8 Other specified intestinal obstruction of newborn
  • P76.9 Intestinal obstruction of newborn, 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.
