What 99463 covers

This service covers the same-day hospital or birthing-center care of a normal newborn, including the initial evaluation and management and the discharge-related care. It is typically performed by a physician or other qualified clinician responsible for the newborn’s care during the stay. The code is specific to a newborn admitted and discharged on the same calendar date; it is not the selection for a newborn who remains admitted for a later date.

Report one same-day episode for the infant rather than separate newborn-care entries for admission and discharge. Documentation should support the newborn’s normal status, the initial assessment and management, and the same-date admission and discharge. The CMS physician fee schedule assigns physician-work and practice-expense values to this service. Choose among newborn-care codes according to the care setting, whether the service is initial or subsequent, and whether discharge occurs that day.
