Maternal hypotension syndrome, first trimester

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

Abnormally low blood pressure during the first trimester of pregnancy (weeks 1-12), which may cause dizziness or fainting.

Coding Tips

  • •Distinguish between chronic hypertension and pregnancy-induced hypotension; verify baseline blood pressure readings
  • •Document any symptoms and interventions; hypotension in early pregnancy requires monitoring for fetal effects
