ICD-10-CM Code For Chronic Respiratory Disease Originating In The Perinatal Period: Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group P27 includes chronic respiratory disorders originating in the perinatal period such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, chronic respiratory disease due to lung hypoplasia, and other sequelae of neonatal respiratory failure that affect long-term pulmonary function. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document ongoing respiratory morbidity in infants and children, capturing disease severity, organ involvement, or clinical complexity relevant to perinatal pulmonary conditions. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM P27 group supports proper claim adjudication, complete clinical documentation, and appropriate reimbursement.

ICD-10-CM P27: Chronic Respiratory Disease Originating In The Perinatal Period Overview
The ICD-10-CM P27 group represents chronic respiratory disorders that originate in the perinatal period, including conditions such as chronic respiratory disease due to lung hypoplasia, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and other sequelae of neonatal respiratory distress. These diagnoses target the neonatal respiratory system and often reflect long-term pulmonary morbidity following preterm birth or perinatal lung injury. Accurate coding matters for documenting clinical complexity and supporting appropriate reimbursement for ongoing neonatal and pediatric respiratory care.
