Morris BH, Oh W, Tyson JE, et al; NICHD Neonatal Research Network. 2011;128(4):e1046-e1052. Phototherapy is the use of visible light to treat severe jaundice in the neonatal period. This code may be reported only once per day and by only one physician. When the newborn jaundice requires additional resources, the correct diagnosis is usually found under P58 Neonatal jaundice due to other excessive hemolysis or P59 Neonatal jaundice from other and unspecified causes codes. Now, newborns are checked with a transcutaneous bilirubinometer, and the pediatrician reviews standard laboratory blood screenings. 1990;10(4):435-438. The primary outcome was a composite of death or neurodevelopmental impairment determined for 91 % of the infants by investigators who were unaware of the treatment assignments. list-style-type: decimal; The fetal blood is designed to attract oxygen from the mothers blood. Codes 99478-99480 each are described as, "Subsequent intensive care, per day, for the evaluation and management of the recovering low or very low birth weight infant" with the code selected based upon the present body weight of the infant as below. Deshmukh J, Deshmukh M, Patole S. Probiotics for the management of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials. Indirect evidence from 3 descriptive uncontrolled studies suggested favorable associations between initiation of screening and decrease in hyperbilirubinemia rates, and rates of treatment or re-admissions for hyperbilirubinemia compared with the baseline of no screening. 2001;108:31-39. Usually, procedures coded: Low-cost, low-risk screening and prevention procedures usually are not coded. One study reported a significant reduction in the risk of hyperbilirubinemia and rate of treatment with phototherapy associated with enteral supplementation with prebiotics (RR 0.75, 95 % CI: 0.58 to 0.97; 1 study, 50 infants; low-quality evidence).

'New' bilirubin recommendations questioned. 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. There was no evidence of a significant difference in duration of phototherapy between the prebiotic and control groups, which was only reported by 1 study (MD 0.10 days, 95 % CI: -2.00 to 2.20; 1 study, 50 infants; low-quality evidence). Third, since RCTs of included studies centered in a short observation period and did not follow-up the patients in long-term, the methodological quality of clinical trials with probiotics supplementation therapy for neonatal jaundice needed further improvement. 2021;16(5):e0251584. Guidelines for detection, management and prevention of hyperbilirubinemia in term and late preterm newborn infants (35 or more weeks gestation). The initial day of critical care for the evaluation and management of a critically ill neonate, 28-days of age or less, is reported with code 99468. #closethis { However, only 1 trial (out of 2) reported significant reduction in bilirubin levels in preterm neonates.

Results were summarized as per GRADE guidelines. Codes for initial care of the normal newborn include: After the newborn has been discharged to home, it is common practice to see the infant to assess for jaundice or any feeding problems. Typically, no extra resources are required during the newborn hospitalization, so do not code the condition. Although the duration of phototherapy in the zinc group was significantly shorter compared to the placebo group (n = 286; MD -12.80, 95 % CI: -16.93 to -8.67), the incidence of need for phototherapy was comparable across both the groups (n = 286; RR 1.20; 95 % CI: 0.66 to 2.18).

If separately documented in the mother's chart, you may report these services in addition to the services provided to the infant. color: blue They used a fixed-effect method in combining the effects of studies that were sufficiently similar; and then used the GRADE approach to assess the quality of the evidence. Phototherapy to prevent severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in the newborn infant 35 or more weeks of gestation. 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. Ch. 2005;17(2):167-169. Only one physician may report this code. 3. Guidelines from the AAP stated: "There is now evidence that hyperbilirubinemia can be effectively prevented or treated with tin-mesoporphyrin, a drug that inhibits the production of heme oxygenase. Trikalinos et al (2009) reviewed the effectiveness of specific screening modalities to prevent neonatal bilirubin encephalopathy. Spontaneous descent after one year is uncommon.

The authors concluded that home-based phototherapy was more effective than hospital-based phototherapy in treatment for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia; home-based phototherapy was an effective, feasible, safe, and alternative to hospital-based phototherapy for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Indian Pediatr. Clin Pediatr (Phila). Garg and colleagues (2017) stated that neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (NNH) is one of the leading causes of admissions in nursery throughout the world. (Codes may be selected based on time spent in counseling and coordination of care when documentation indicates more than 50% of face-to-face time was spent in these activities.) Moreover, they stated that routine use of probiotics to prevent or treat neonatal jaundice cannot be recommended; large well-designed trials are needed to confirm these findings. 66940 Removal of lens material; extracapsular (other than 66840, 66850, 66852) Learn more about pediatric cataract billing in Ophthalmic Coding: Learn to Code . .fixedHeaderWrap { /* aetna.com standards styles for templates */ Cochrane Database Syst Rev. } The authors concluded that phototherapy significantly interfered with the accuracy of transcutaneous bilirubinometry; TcB measurements performed 2 hours after stopping phototherapy were not reliable, even if they were performed on the unexposed body area.

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia: An evidence-based approach. Aetna considers home phototherapy for physiologic jaundice in healthy infants with a gestational age of 35 weeks or more medically necessary if all of the following criteria are met: Note: If levels do not respond by stabilizing (+/- 1 mg/dL) or declining, more intensive phototherapy may be warranted. The correlation coefficient improved marginally in the post-phototherapy phase (r = 0.72, 95 % CI: 0.64 to 0.78, 4 studies). Clinical Policy Bulletins are developed by Aetna to assist in administering plan benefits and constitute neither offers of coverage nor medical advice. Risk of bias was assessed using the QUADAS-2 tool. Involve significant costs (e.g., use of the operating room, more expensive diagnostic imaging types, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging); Are risky (e.g., bedside spinal taps, epidural/regional/general anesthesia); Milia (including Bohn nodules on the gum and Epstein pearls on the palate). padding: 10px; Grabert BE, Wardwell C, Harburg SK. These researchers systematically evaluated the safety and efficacy of probiotics supplement therapy for pathological neonatal jaundice. These researchers examined whether the UGT1A1*28 allele is associated with extreme hyperbilirubinemia. So, it was hard for these investigators to determine whether the allocation scheme was appropriate and whether blinding of participants and personnel was implemented. Randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials of pregnant women established to have red cell isoimmunization in the current pregnancy during their antenatal testing and given phenobarbital alone or in combination with other drugs before birth were selected for review. When no additional resources are used, this is not coded on the inpatient record, and is part of the pediatricians well-baby check. list-style-type: upper-roman; There is no CPT code because these hospital screenings are usually done by hospital staff who are trained by an audiologist. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. A total of 15 studies (2 including preterm neonates and 13 including term neonates) were included in this review. Kumar P, Chawla D, Deorari A. Light-emitting diode phototherapy for unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia in neonates. In a Cochrane review, Mishra and colleagues (2015) examined the effect of oral zinc supplementation compared to placebo or no treatment on the incidence of hyperbilirubinaemia in neonates during the first week of life and to evaluate the safety of oral zinc in enrolled neonates. The authors concluded that the role of massage therapy in the management of NNH was supported by the current evidence. A systematic evidence review prepared for the Cochrane Collaboration (Suresh et al, 2003) concluded that, based upon limitations of the evidence, "[r]outine treatment of neonatal unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia with a metalloporphyrin cannot be recommended at present.". American Academy of Pediatrics and American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologist. This document addresses the use of home phototherapy and the devices used for the treatment of neonatal jaundice that is physiologic (that is, non-pathologic) in nature. So why would you not use one of the codes from 99221-99223 for the first day? Toggle navigation. 2002;3(1). These ELBW infants had participated in a randomized controlled trial of early DXM therapy thataimed toevaluate effects on chronic lung disease. Halliday HL, Ehrenkranz RA, Doyle LW.

Studies were analyzed for methodological quality in a "Risk of bias" table. [Phototherapy of newborn infants] The effect of light treatment on neonates with jaundice was discovered in 1958. Semin Fetal Neonatal Med. Wong RJ, Bhutani VK. 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. An example is hemangiomas (e.g., strawberry hemangiomas), which do not impinge on vital structures and are not located in the periorbital area, lip, neck, or sacral region. 2021;77(1):12-22. Aetna considers massage therapy experimental and investigational for the treatment ofneonatal hyperbilirubinemia because its effectiveness has not been established. Toward understanding kernicterus: A challenge to improve the management of jaundiced newborns. 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). Digestive System Disorders. The pediatrician notes the abnormal results have implications for future healthcare. 66850 Removal of lens material; phacofragmentation technique (mechanical or ultrasonic) (eg, phacoemulsification), with aspiration.
