Z38.8
ICD-10-CMOther multiple liveborn infant, unspecified as to place of birth
This code signifies the birth of multiple live infants where the specific number of offspring is not documented, and the location of the birth (e.g., hospital, home) is also unknown. It indicates a live birth event involving more than one infant, but lacks further detail regarding the exact count or the birth setting.
Use this code when documentation confirms a multiple live birth, but the precise number of infants (e.g., twins, triplets) is not specified, and the place where the birth occurred is also not recorded. This is typically a last resort when more specific Z38 codes cannot be assigned due to insufficient information.
