P07.1 — Other low birth weight newborn

Not billable

Is P07.1 billable?

No — P07.1 is a non-billable header code. P07.1 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 6 billable codes beneath P07.1.

Excludes1 — never code together
