Placenta accreta, unspecified trimester

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

What This Code Means

The placenta is abnormally attached to the uterine wall (placenta accreta) at an unspecified point during pregnancy. This condition increases the risk of severe bleeding during delivery.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when the trimester is not documented; if trimester is known, use the more specific codes O43.211, O43.212, or O43.213
  • •This is typically diagnosed via imaging (ultrasound or MRI) and should be documented in the obstetric record with delivery planning notes
