About ICD-9-CM 642.44
642.44 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for mild or unspecified pre-eclampsia, 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 3 ICD-10-CM codes, such as O14.05 (Mild to moderate pre-eclampsia, complicating the puerperium), O14.95 (Unspecified pre-eclampsia, complicating the puerperium) and O15.2 (Eclampsia complicating the puerperium). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
