Cont preg aft elctv fetl rdct of 1 fts or more,3rd tri, unsp

This code signifies a continuing pregnancy in the third trimester following an elective fetal reduction procedure where one or more fetuses were reduced. It indicates that the pregnancy is ongoing after the intentional termination of one or more fetuses to improve outcomes for the remaining fetus(es).

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a history of elective fetal reduction in a multifetal pregnancy, and the patient is currently in the third trimester with the remaining fetus(es) still viable. This code is appropriate when the specific number of reduced fetuses or the exact timing of the reduction (beyond being elective) is not specified or is not relevant for this particular encounter.

• Always sequence this code after a code for the current pregnancy status (e.g., Z3A.xx).
• Ensure documentation specifies "elective fetal reduction" and the current trimester.
• Do not use for spontaneous fetal demise or reduction due to medical necessity for the mother.
