Regurgitation and rumination of newborn

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

What This Code Means

A newborn is regurgitating food or bringing up stomach contents without forceful vomiting, or is ruminating (rechewing food that has been regurgitated).

Coding Tips

  • Regurgitation is common in newborns and often resolves without intervention; document if it's affecting feeding or growth
  • Distinguish between simple regurgitation and vomiting, as vomiting codes (P92.0x) indicate more forceful expulsion
