About 99465: Newborn delivery room resuscitation
Reports active resuscitation of a newborn in the delivery or birthing room, such as positive-pressure ventilation or chest compressions.
CPT 99465 describes active resuscitation of a newborn in the delivery or birthing room, including measures such as positive-pressure ventilation or chest compressions. A physician or other qualified clinician with responsibility for newborn resuscitation may provide the service in a hospital delivery suite or birthing room. Endotracheal intubation and medication administration may be part of the resuscitation when clinically needed.
Select this code for the resuscitation service itself, not simply for being present at delivery or providing initial stabilization. The record should identify the resuscitative measures performed and the newborn’s condition and response. Distinguish this service from routine newborn hospital care or neonatal critical care based on the service delivered and its setting. The supplied CMS facts list no special payment rule for this code; payment is valued under the physician fee schedule.

99465 billing questions
How is 99465 different from 99464?
99465 is for active delivery-room resuscitation, such as positive-pressure ventilation or chest compressions. 99464 describes attendance at delivery and initial stabilization without that resuscitation service.
Should intubation or medication administration be coded separately?
These interventions may be part of the newborn resuscitation reported with 99465. Document what was performed as part of the resuscitation rather than treating each intervention as a separate 99465 service.
What documentation supports 99465?
Document the newborn’s condition, the resuscitative measures provided, and the response. Include details such as ventilation, chest compressions, intubation, or medication administration when performed.
Can 99465 be reported with initial newborn hospital care?
The services describe different work: 99465 covers delivery-room resuscitation, while 99460 covers initial newborn hospital care. Documentation should establish the distinct service provided for each.
Is 99465 for neonatal intensive care after delivery?
No. It describes resuscitation in the delivery or birthing room. Neonatal critical care after delivery is represented by a different service, such as 99468.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
