About ICD-9-CM 642.34
642.34 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for transient hypertension of pregnancy, postpartum condition or complication. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 4 ICD-10-CM codes, such as O13.1 (Gestational [pregnancy-induced] hypertension without significant proteinuria, first trimester), O13.2 (Gestational [pregnancy-induced] hypertension without significant proteinuria, second trimester) and O13.3 (Gestational [pregnancy-induced] hypertension without significant proteinuria, third trimester). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
