P70.0 ICD-10-CM Code: Syndrome of infant of mother with gestational diabetes

P70.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for syndrome of infant of mother with gestational diabetes. A group of symptoms and metabolic problems in newborns whose mothers had gestational diabetes during pregnancy. P70.0 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (p00-p96), within the section covering transitory endocrine and metabolic disorders specific to newborn (p70-p74).

P70.0 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

This code is used when the mother had gestational diabetes; do not use if mother had pre-existing diabetes.
