Enctr for pro mgmt and counseling for gestational carrier

This code signifies an encounter where an individual is receiving medical management and counseling specifically related to their role as a gestational carrier (surrogate). This includes services aimed at preparing them for pregnancy, monitoring their health during the process, and providing guidance on the unique aspects of carrying a pregnancy for another couple.

Use this code for visits involving medical evaluations, fertility treatments, medication management, or counseling sessions for a woman who intends to or is actively serving as a gestational carrier. This applies to the pre-pregnancy phase, during the embryo transfer process, and for ongoing management before the gestational carrier becomes pregnant.

• Do not use this code once the gestational carrier is confirmed pregnant; refer to the Excludes1 note.
• This code is for the gestational carrier herself, not the intended parents.
• Consider additional codes for specific medical conditions or procedures performed during the encounter.
