About O26.61

O26.61 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for liver and biliary tract disorders in pregnancy. It belongs to category O26 (maternal care for other conditions predominantly related to pregnancy), block O20-O29 (other maternal disorders predominantly related to pregnancy) 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 O26.6 (liver and biliary tract disorders in pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium), O26.61 is specifically for liver and biliary tract disorders in pregnancy. Related codes cover liver and biliary tract disorders in childbirth (O26.62), liver and biliary tract disorders in the puerperium (O26.63) and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (O26.64).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: O26.611 (first trimester), O26.612 (second trimester), O26.613 (third trimester) and O26.619 (unspecified trimester).

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