ICD-10 Code O23.3: Infections of other parts of urinary tract in pregnancy
Reviewed by HealthAssure Clinical TeamUpdated 21 May 2026
What is this code?
ICD-10 entries help standardize how diagnoses are organized for coding, reporting, analytics, and documentation. This code sits within the broader ICD-10 area for Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A).
đź“‹Clinical overview
This ICD-10 overview page groups other-urinary-tract-infection-in-pregnancy codes under a non-trimester parent code. The most accurate billable code usually depends on trimester timing and whether the documented urinary site can be named more specifically.
When is it used?
- May be used when a clinician documents infections of other parts of urinary tract in pregnancy in a patient's medical record.
- May appear in hospital records, claims, referrals, and clinical documentation.
- This code may act more like a grouping or parent code, so a more specific child code may be used in final documentation when available.
What it does not mean
- A code alone does not explain severity, treatment plan, or outcome.
- A medical code should not be treated as a substitute for a doctor's diagnosis or advice.
- This entry may represent a broader category rather than the most specific billable code.
đź©şClinical context
When commonly used
- Parent-code browsing, coding review, and clinical-reference workflows where the goal is to understand the other-urinary-tract-infection-in-pregnancy family before selecting a trimester-specific child code.
- Documentation review where pregnancy urinary infection is established outside the kidney, bladder, or urethral subgroups, but the user is navigating the family overview page rather than a trimester-specific leaf page.
Common workup
- Common related testing on this page includes Urinalysis, Urine culture, Complete blood count.
- Related procedures or service context already linked on this page include Obstetric ultrasound, Fetal nonstress testing.
Common management context
- Overview-level review often includes urinalysis, urine culture, symptom review, and coordination of maternal monitoring alongside pregnancy follow-up.
- The final billable code usually becomes more specific when the chart identifies trimester timing and clarifies the exact urinary site.
- Specialist context already linked on this page includes Obstetrician, Gynecologist, Infectious Disease Specialist, Urologist.
🔍Key distinctions
Important notes
- This parent page is an overview for trimester-specific other-urinary-tract-infection-in-pregnancy codes rather than the most specific billable leaf code.
- Clearer chart language about the exact urinary site can change code specificity inside the pregnancy context.
- This overview page groups trimester-specific other-urinary-tract-infection-in-pregnancy codes, so the final billable code usually depends on trimester timing and whether the documented urinary site can be named more specifically.
