I am needing help please with how to code this with the ICD CM codes. The patient delivered in ambulance prior to arrival at the hospital. When the patient arrived at the hospital the provider repaired the patient's lacerations and delivered the placenta. I know there is a code for encounter for immediate postpartum care. I am not sure do I use this with the ICD 10 CM codes for the lacerations? But when I code the lacerations it is asking that I code outcome of delivery and the weeks of pregnancy. So I am not sure exactly what to code for the mother's record?
