10 days postpartum admitted for pre-eclampsia. ICD-10 O14.05 is code for this but I had someone tell I should put weeks gestation (Z3A) for that code even though she is postpartum. Make no sense to me. Can someone please advise.

Thanks
 
O14.05 is the code for mild to moderate pre-eclampsia, complicating puerperium, you would not need to add the Z3A code along with this where the pt has already delivered and is not longer considered being in the gestation period.
