About O98.71

O98.71 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease complicating pregnancy. It belongs to category O98 (maternal infectious and parasitic diseases classifiable elsewhere but complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium), block O94-O9A (other obstetric conditions, not elsewhere classified) 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 O98.7 (human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium), O98.71 is specifically for human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease complicating pregnancy. Related codes cover childbirth (O98.72) and the puerperium (O98.73).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: O98.711 (first trimester), O98.712 (second trimester), O98.713 (third trimester) and O98.719 (unspecified trimester).

Use an additional code (Chapter 1), to identify specific infectious or parasitic disease.

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