What This Code Means

P29 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for cardiovascular disorders originating in the perinatal period. P29 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (p00-p96), within the section covering respiratory and cardiovascular disorders specific to the perinatal period (p19-p29).

Header codes like P29 cannot be reported on claims directly; they organize child codes that share clinical context. Coders should select the billable child code that matches the documented presentation and then verify its current source-backed HCC mapping. Do not infer a child code or risk adjustment value from the header alone.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for P29 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Excludes 2, Not included here, may code separately
