Z37.59
ICD-10-CMThis code signifies a delivery event resulting in the birth of multiple infants, all of whom were born alive. It is used when the specific type of multiple birth (e.g., twins, triplets) is not otherwise specified or falls outside of the more common categories.
Apply this code when documentation confirms a multiple gestation delivery where all neonates were liveborn, and the number of fetuses is not precisely defined as twins, triplets, etc., or is a higher-order multiple birth not covered by more specific codes. This is typically used for the mother's record following delivery.
