About P54

P54 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other neonatal hemorrhages. It belongs to block P50-P61 (hemorrhagic and hematological disorders of newborn) and chapter 16 (certain conditions originating in the perinatal period). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 9 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: P54.0 (hematemesis), P54.1 (melena), P54.2 (hemorrhage), P54.3 (hemorrhage), P54.4 (hemorrhage), P54.5 (hemorrhage), P54.6 (hemorrhage), P54.8 (hemorrhages) and 1 more.

Don't report P54 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: newborn affected by (intrauterine) blood loss (P50.-) and pulmonary hemorrhage originating in the perinatal period (P26.-).

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