About O15

O15 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for eclampsia. It belongs to block O10-O16 (edema, proteinuria and hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium) 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.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: O15.0 (complicating pregnancy), O15.1 (complicating labor), O15.2 (complicating the puerperium) and O15.9 (unspecified as to time period).

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