These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to P00.2. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.

  • TORCH infectionwithout active infection
  • Infection, infected, infectiveTORCHwithout active infection (opportunistic)
  • Newbornaffected bymaternalinfectious disease (infant) (liveborn) (singleton)
  • Newbornaffected bymaternalparasitic disease (infant) (liveborn) (singleton)

Excludes1 — never code together

The conditions below can never be reported together with P00.2 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • maternal genital tract or other localized infections (P00.8)

Excludes2 — not included here

The conditions below are not part of P00.2, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P00.2 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • infections specific to the perinatal period (P35-P39)
  • newborn affected by (positive) maternal group B streptococcus (GBS) colonization (P00.82)

Inclusion terms

Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to P00.2.

  • Newborn affected by maternal infectious disease classifiable to A00-B99, J09 and J10

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 16

The conditions below are not part of P00.2, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P00.2 and the excluded code may both be reported.
