It affects approximately 2.4 to 15 % of neonates during the first 2 weeks of life. Seidman DS, Stevenson DK, Ergaz Z, et al. 2005;25(5):325-330. 16th ed. 2006;(4):CD004592. Evidence Centre Evidence Report. Digestive System Disorders. Trikalinos TA, Chung M, Lau J, Ip S. Systematic review of screening for bilirubin encephalopathy in neonates. Subsequent days of critical care to the critically ill neonate are reported per day with code 99469. Two reviewers independently assessed studies for inclusion, and discrepancies were resolved with consensus. Garg and colleagues (2017) stated that neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (NNH) is one of the leading causes of admissions in nursery throughout the world. Rates of death in the aggressive-phototherapy and conservative-phototherapy groups were 24 % and 23 %, respectively (relative risk, 1.05; 95 % CI: 0.90 to 1.22). None of the studies reported on bilirubin encephalopathy rates, neonatal mortality rates, or the levels of parental or staff satisfactions with the interventions. Effects of Gly71Arg mutation in UGT1A1 gene on neonatal hyperbilirubinemia: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Aetna considers management of physiologic hyperbilirubinemia medically necessary in preterm infants (defined as an infant born prior to 37 weeks gestation) according to guidelines published by the AAP. They stated that TSB assessment remains necessary, if treatment of hyperbilirubinemia is being considered. For additional language assistance: SLCO1B1 (solute carrier organic anion transporter family, member 1B1) (eg, adverse drug reaction), gene analysis, common variant(s) (eg, *5), UGT1A1 (UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1) (eg, irinotecan metabolism), gene analysis, common variants (eg, *28, *36, *37), Molecular pathology procedure, Level 1(eg, identification of single germline variant [eg, SNP] by techniques such as restriction enzyme digestion or melt curve analysis) [for assessing risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia], Therapeutic procedure, 1 or more areas, each 15 minutes; massage, including effleurage, petrissage and/or tapotement (stroking, compression, percussion), G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) (eg, hemolytic anemia, jaundice), gene analysis, Phototherapy (bilirubin) light with photometer, Home visit, phototherapy services (e.g., Bili-lite), including equipment rental, nursing services, blood draw, supplies, and other services, per diem, Injection, phenobarbital sodium, up to 120 mg, Neonatal jaundice due to other excessive hemolysis, Neonatal jaundice from other and unspecified causes, Maternal care for other isoimmunization [not covered for the use of antenatal phenobarbital in red cell isoimmunized pregnant women], Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD); quantitative, Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD); screen, Genetic susceptibility to other disease [G6PD deficiency], Family history of other endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases [G6PD deficiency], Family history of carrier of genetic disease [G6PD deficiency]. Exploring the genetic architecture of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Analysis was performed on an intention-to-treat basis. Randomized controlled trials were eligible for inclusion if they enrolled neonates (term and pre-term) to whom oral zinc, in a dose of 10 to 20 mg/day, was initiated within the first 96 hours of life, for any duration until day 7, compared with no treatment or placebo. Intensive phototherapy in form of double light is used worldwide in the treatment of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Exchange transfusion involves taking small aliquots of blood from the infant and replacing them with donor red cells until the infants blood volume has been replaced twice to remove bilirubin and antibodies that may be causing hemolysis. www.stanfordchildrens.org/en/topic/default?id=developmental-dysplasia-of-the-hip-ddh-90-P02755 hip dysplasia Guidelines from the Canadian Paediatric Society (2007) found that phenobarbitol, studied as a means of preventing severe hyperbilirubinemia in infants with G6PD deficiency, did not improve clinically important outcomes in a randomized controlled clinical study (Murki et al, 2005). Indian Pediatr. You are using an out of date browser. Prophylactic phototherapy for preventing jaundice in preterm or low birth weight infants.

Santa Barbara, CA: Elsevier Saunders; 2011. Armanian AM, Jahanfar S, Feizi A, et al. color: blue!important; In a Cochrane review, these investigators examined if administration of prebiotics reduces the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia among term and pre-term infants compared with enteral supplementation of milk with distilled water/placebo or no supplementation. Meta-analysis was performed using random- or fixed-effect models. Consistent with available guidelines, continued phototherapy is not medically necessary for healthy term infants when the following criteria for discontinuation of phototherapy are met: A delay in discharge from the hospital in order to observe the infant for rebound once the bilirubin has decreased is not considered medically necessary. However, that is not always the case. Pediatrics. There is a new code for sacral dimples, Q82.6 Congenital sacral dimple, which can be coded in the professional encounter if they affect care, such as when an ultrasound is ordered and there is no finding of occult spina bifida. The authors concluded that there is a compelling need for the long-term follow-up and reporting of late outcomes, especially neurological and developmental outcomes, among surviving infants who participated in all randomized trials of early postnatal corticosteroid treatment. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. OL OL OL LI { Because it is a screening (not diagnostic), the test does not meet the definition of a diagnostic procedure or therapeutic treatment for a clinically significant condition. Sharma D, Farahbakhsh N, Sharma P, Shastri S. Role of oral zinc supplementation for reduction of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia: A systematic review of current evidence. Mean STB levels, mg/dL, at 72 12 hours were comparable in both the groups (n = 286; mean difference (MD) -0.20; 95 % CI: -1.03 to 0.63). Prophylactic probiotics did not reduce the incidence of jaundice significantly [n=1,582, RR: 0.56 (0.25 to 1.27); p=0.16; LOE: low]. Normal Newborn visit, initial service 1. Liu J, Long J, Zhang S, et al. 2007;44(3):354-358. The nurses role in caring for newborns and their caregivers. Although early corticosteroid treatment facilitates extubation and reduces the risk of chronic lung disease and patent ductus arteriosus, it causes short-term adverse effects including gastro-intestinal bleeding, intestinal perforation, hyperglycaemia, hypertension, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and growth failure. 1998;94(1):39-40. It is an option to intervene at lower TSB levels for infants closer to 35 wks and at higher TSB levels for those closer to 37 6/7 wks. 92558 Evoked otoacoustic emissions, screening (qualitative measurement of distortion product or transient evoked otoacoustic emissions), automated analysis. Do not code this condition for the newborn inpatient encounter, unless additional resources are used. The authors concluded that zinc sulfate could not reduce the TSB on 3 days and 7 days, the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia and phototherapy requirement, but resulted in significantly decreased duration of phototherapy. TcB consistently under-estimated TSB levels significantly. Chu L, Xue X, Qiao J. Efficacy of intermittent phototherapy versus continuous phototherapy for treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Participating providers are independent contractors in private practice and are neither employees nor agents of Aetna or its affiliates. Wennberg RP, Ahlfors CE, Bhutani VK, et al. Semin Fetal Neonatal Med. This is caused by a small opening in the abdominal muscles that abdominal contents (e.g., fluid, abdominal lining) spill through. Aetna considers massage therapy experimental and investigational for the treatment ofneonatal hyperbilirubinemia because its effectiveness has not been established. 2010;47(5):401-407. The authors concluded that current studies are unable to provide reliable evidence regarding the effectiveness of prebiotics on hyperbilirubinemia. } The ICD-10-PCS code for light treatment of the skin is 6A600ZZ Phototherapy of skin, single for a single treatment. Do not confuse light treatment with ultraviolet light therapy, which is usually used for skin conditions such as psoriasis. If approved, tin-mesoporphyrin could find immediate application in preventing the need for exchange transfusion in infants who are not responding to phototherapy." Everything I am finding indicates this code is used for dermatological treatment not for jaundice. In a systematic review and meta-analysis, Chu and colleagues (2021) examined if intermittent phototherapy is more effective than continuous phototherapy in the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. 2008;93(2):F135-F139. Even if it meets the technical meaning of conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva), it isnt contagious; its self-limiting and does not affect medical decision-making, so it cannot be coded on the pediatricians encounter. Deshmukh and associates (2017) noted that neonatal jaundice requiring phototherapy is associated with significant socioeconomic burden including hospital re-admission, prolonged hospital stay, and separation of the baby from mother. Schuman AJ, Karush G. Fiberoptic vs conventional home phototherapy for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. 1994;94(4 Pt 1):558-565 (reviewed 2000). 2001;108:31-39. All 3 review authors independently assessed study eligibility and quality. 2017;30(16):1953-1962. Moreover, these investigators stated that infants with bilirubin levels greater than 25 mg/dL, those who are not responding to phototherapy, and those with evidence of acute bilirubin encephalopathy should be treated with exchange transfusion, with initiation based on an infants age in hours and neurotoxicity risk factors. } CETS 99-6 RE. Kumar P, Chawla D, Deorari A. Light-emitting diode phototherapy for unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia in neonates. No statistical difference in the prevalence of UGTA1A1 gene variants was found between cases and controls (p = 1). All Rights Reserved. 6. The authors concluded that the UGT1A1*28 allele was not associated with risk for extreme hyperbilirubinemia in this study. .strikeThrough { Screening is usually done as close as possible to inpatient discharge for this reason. To determine if the administration of the anti-infective (e.g., erythromycin) externally to the eye (3E0CX2 Introduction of oxazolidinones into eye, external approach) is coded, check if your hospital has a policy on inpatient procedure collection. Evidence Report/Technology Assessment No. OL OL OL OL LI { If time is not significant, and it does not impact medical decision-making, it does not meet the definition of an additional professional encounter diagnosis. His or her temperature should be between 97F and 100F (36.1C and 37.8C). Aggressive phototherapy did reduce rates of neurodevelopmental impairment (26 %, versus 30 %for conservative phototherapy; relative risk, 0.86; 95 % CI: 0.74 to 0.99). J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med. BiliCheck variability (+/- 2 SD of the mean bias from serum bilirubin) was within -87.2 to 63.3 micromol/L, while BiliMed variability was within -97.5 to 121.4 micromol/L. Studies were analyzed for methodological quality in a "Risk of bias" table. } The ointment is administered by the hospital staff, so there is no professional component to the service. Sacral dimples without diagnostic services, such as diagnostic imaging, are not coded on inpatient records. Data selection and extraction were performed independently by 2 reviewers. These researchers stated that additional large, well-designed RCTs are needed in neonates that compare effects of enteral supplementation with prebiotics on neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with supplementation of milk with any other placebo (particularly distilled water) or no supplementation. list-style-type: upper-alpha; In particular, polymorphisms across 3 genes involved in bilirubin production and metabolism: Variant gene co-expression including compound and synergistic heterozygosity enhances hyperbilirubinemia risk, contributing to the etiologic heterogeneity and complex nature of neonatal jaundice. I have a provider that ordered phototherapy for a newborn in the hospital with jaundice and he is wanting to bill 96900. They included English-language publications evaluating the effects of screening for bilirubin encephalopathy using early TSB, TcB measurements, or risk scores. Aetna does not provide health care services and, therefore, cannot guarantee any results or outcomes. /*margin-bottom: 43px;*/ Although generally seen as safe, there is rising concern regarding phototherapy and its potentially damaging effects on DNA and increased side effects particularly for pre-term infants. Bhutani VK, Stark AR, Lazzeroni LC, et al; Initial Clinical Testing Evaluation and Risk Assessment for Universal Screening for Hyperbilirubinemia Study Group. Clofibrate in combination with phototherapy for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is considered experimental and investigational. Do not percuss over the backbone, breastbone, or lower two ribs. Do not report Q10.3 Q10.6 or any of the H04 Disorders of lacrimal system for immaturity of the lacrimal ducts. Chawla D, Parmar V. Phenobarbitone for prevention and treatment of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in preterm neonates: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Usually, the nurses pin the sleeve of the affected arm to the body of the newborns t-shirt. N Engl J Med. Pediatrics. If separately documented in the mother's chart, you may report these services in addition to the services provided to the infant. 2017;8:432. Codes for circumcision procedures include: When providing E/M services to other than normal newborns, choose the level of care based on the intensity of the service and status of the newborn. A randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial of prophylactic oral phenobarbital to reduce the need for phototherapy in G6PD-deficient neonates. Newman TB, Maisels MJ. The UGT1A1*28 allele was assessed in a case-control study of 231 white infants who had extreme hyperbilirubinemia in Denmark from 2000 to 2007 and 432 white controls. Probiotics supplementation therapy for pathological neonatal jaundice: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Although declining the inpatient prophylactic services is not reportable by inpatient hospital coders (because it does not affect the hospitalization), outpatient physician office coders can and should use Z28 Immunization not carried out and under immunization status codes when provider-recommended immunizations are not administered. The authors stated that this study had several drawbacks. Approximately 2 ml of peripheral venous blood was taken from all subjects. Neonatology. Randomized, controlled trial of early intravenous nutrition for prevention of neonatal jaundice in term and near-term neonates. Metalloporphyrins for treatment of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in neonates. Mishra S, Cheema A, Agarwal R, et al. Ip S, Glicken S, Kulig J, et al. For the same reason, subcutaneous vaccine administration (3E0134Z Introduction of serum, toxoid and vaccine into subcutaneous tissue, percutaneous approach) usually is not coded. 2016;36(10):858-861. All searches were re-run on April 2, 2012. CPT CODE 96910, 96912, 96920 CPT/HCPCS Codes: 96910 Photochemotherapy; tar and ultraviolet B (Goeckerman treatment) or petrolatum and ultraviolet B . Procedures included in the services represented by code 99477 include those listed for the Critical Care Services subsection of CPT (codes 99291 and 99292), as well as additional procedures listed in the Inpatient Neonatal and Pediatric Critical Care subsection (codes 99468-99476, 99466-99467).

Databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wan Fang Database (Wan Fang), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals (VIP) were searched and the deadline was December 2016; RCTs of probiotics supplementation for pathological neonatal jaundice in publications were extracted by 2 reviewers. Less than 30 minutes of hands-on care during transport would not be separately reported. newborn, known as hyperbilirubenemia. These investigators also searched clinical trials databases, conference proceedings, and the reference lists of retrieved articles for RCTs and quasi-randomized trials. 2005;17(2):167-169. Gholitabar M, McGuire H, Rennie J, et al. Practice patterns in neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. A heterozygous group was also equally distributed between cases (44.3 %) and controls (42.9 %). No studies met the inclusion criteria for this review. If your newborn is too warm, remove the curtains or cover from around the light set. This reduction may be offset by an increase in mortality among infants weighing 501 to 750 g at birth. These investigators evaluated the effects of antenatal phenobarbital in red cell isoimmunized pregnancies in reducing the incidence of phototherapy and exchange transfusion for the neonate. Poland RL. In 54 ELBW preterm infants, TSB and phototherapy (PT) data during the first 10 days were evaluated retrospectively. For instance, abnormal findings on screenings for example, newborn hearing screening or lab screenings are not coded in the inpatient record, unless: Here are several watchful waiting findings to consider. The therapy may be in the form of a lamp, light panel, or special light blanket. Initial hospital or birthing center care, per day, for E/M of normal newborn infant, Initial care per day, for E/M of normal newborn infant seen in other than hospital or birthing center, Initial hospital or birthing center care, per day, for E/M of normal newborn infant admitted and discharged on the same date, Circumsion, using clamp or other device with regional dorsal penile or ring block, Circumsion, as above, without dorsal penile or ring block, Circumsion, surgical excision, other than clamp, device, or dorsal slit, neonate (28 days of age or less), Circumsion, surgical excision, other than clamp, device, or dorsal slit, neonate, old then 28 days of age. The authors concluded that the role of massage therapy in the management of NNH was supported by the current evidence. Paediatrics Child Health.
