31.3.4 Postpartum Care Visit

Postpartum care provided by MSCs must be billed using procedure code 2-59430. A maximum of two postpartum visits are allowed within 60 days postpartum period for those clients without documentation or a diagnosis of complication of pregnancy. However, it is preferable for the MSC to enroll as a family planning agency and bill the postpartum visits as family planning services.
