O08.8Other complications following an ectopic and molar pregnancy

O08.8 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other complications following an ectopic and molar pregnancy. It belongs to category O08 (complications following ectopic and molar pregnancy), block O00-O08 (pregnancy with abortive outcome) and chapter 15 (pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within O08, choose O08.8 (Other complications following an ectopic and molar pregnancy) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: genital tract and pelvic infection following ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.0), delayed or excessive hemorrhage following ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.1), embolism following ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.2), shock following ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.3), renal failure following ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.4), metabolic disorders following an ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.5), damage to pelvic organs and tissues following an ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.6), other venous complications following an ectopic and molar pregnancy (O08.7) and 1 more.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: O08.81 (pregnancy), O08.82 (pregnancy), O08.83 (pregnancy) and O08.89 (pregnancy).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
