Cont preg aft elctv fetl rdct of 1 fts or more,2nd tri, fts5

This code signifies a multifetal pregnancy that has undergone an elective reduction of one or more fetuses during the second trimester, and the pregnancy is continuing with fetus 5 remaining. It indicates a history of a planned procedure to reduce the number of fetuses, rather than a spontaneous loss.

Use this code when a patient presents for ongoing prenatal care following an elective fetal reduction performed in the second trimester, and the documentation specifically identifies the continuing fetus as "fetus 5." This code is applicable for subsequent encounters after the reduction procedure.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "elective fetal reduction" and specifies the trimester it occurred.
• Verify the continuing fetus is explicitly identified as "fetus 5" in the medical record.
• Sequence this code as a secondary diagnosis following the primary code for the current pregnancy status (e.g., O30.1- for twin pregnancy).
