Oth mental disorders complicating pregnancy, unsp trimester

This code signifies the presence of a mental health condition, excluding those specifically related to substance use, that complicates a pregnancy. It indicates that the mental disorder is impacting the pregnancy's course or management, and the specific trimester is not documented.

Apply this code when a pregnant patient is diagnosed with a mental disorder (e.g., anxiety, depression, psychosis) that is not substance-induced, and the provider explicitly states it is complicating the pregnancy. Documentation should clearly link the mental health condition to the pregnancy and indicate an unspecified trimester.

• Always sequence this code after the primary obstetric complication or condition.
• Avoid using this code if a more specific mental disorder code with a "complicating pregnancy" inclusion note is available.
• Ensure the medical record explicitly states the mental disorder is "complicating pregnancy" to support its use.
