About coding cold injury newborn syndrome
The ICD-10-CM code for cold injury newborn syndrome is P80.0 (Cold injury syndrome).
Within P80 (hypothermia of newborn), P80.0 is specifically for cold injury syndrome. Related codes cover other hypothermia of newborn (P80.8) and unspecified (P80.9).
Don't report P80.0 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: mild hypothermia of newborn (P80.8).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
Don't confuse with (Excludes1 for P80.0)
- mild hypothermia of newborn (P80.8)
