O65.4

Billable

Obstructed labor due to fetopelvic disproportion, unspecified

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

What This Code Means

Labor that cannot progress because the baby is too large relative to the mother's pelvis, but the specific type of pelvic problem is not documented.

Coding Tips

  • Use this code only when fetopelvic disproportion is confirmed but the specific pelvic abnormality is not identified
  • If the specific pelvic contraction type is documented, use the more specific codes O65.2 or O65.3 instead

Excludes 1 — Do NOT code together

  • dystocia due to abnormality of fetus (O66.2-O66.3)
