P52 — Intracranial nontraumatic hemorrhage of newborn

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

P52 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for intracranial nontraumatic hemorrhage of newborn. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

intracranial hemorrhage due to birth injury (P10.-)
intracranial hemorrhage due to other injury (S06.-)

Includes

Conditions this code covers.

intracranial hemorrhage due to anoxia or hypoxia

Other codes that can never be billed with P52

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at P52. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading P52 alone.

P10Intracranial laceration and hemorrhage due to birth injury
P84Other problems with newborn

Risk adjustment

P52 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Code to one of these instead P52

9 child codes. Green means billable.
