Matern care for known or susp placntl insuff, 2nd tri, unsp

This code signifies ongoing maternal medical management and surveillance due to a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of placental insufficiency during the second trimester of pregnancy. Placental insufficiency refers to the placenta's inability to adequately deliver nutrients and oxygen to the fetus, potentially leading to fetal growth restriction or other complications.

Apply this code when documentation indicates active monitoring, testing, or treatment for placental insufficiency in a pregnant patient between 14 weeks 0 days and 27 weeks 6 days gestation. This includes cases where the condition is suspected based on risk factors or initial findings, as well as confirmed diagnoses.

• Ensure the medical record clearly specifies "second trimester" for accurate code assignment.
• Do not use this code if the placental insufficiency is resolved or if care is for a different trimester.
• Code any associated fetal conditions (e.g., intrauterine growth restriction) separately.
