Official Coding Guidelines

7th character fetus identification; assign 0 in specified cases

6) 7th character for fetus identification Where applicable, a 7th character is to be assigned for certain categories (O31, O32, O33.3 - O33.6, O35, O36, O40, O41, O60.1, O60.2, O64, and O69) to identify the fetus for which the complication code applies.
