P26 — Pulmonary hemorrhage originating in the perinatal period
Is P26 billable?
No — P26 is a non-billable header code. P26 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 4 billable codes beneath P26.

Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with P26 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- acute idiopathic hemorrhage in infants over 28 days old (R04.81)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 16
The conditions below are not part of P26, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P26 and the excluded code may both be reported.
