Lenore delivers a healthy baby girl. Her medical documentation indicates that she has had a normal delivery with no complications antepartum, during the delivery, or postpartum. How does this information influence which codes you assign?

The correct answer is Code 650.

Normal Delivery Code 650 is used in cases when a woman is admitted for a full-term normal delivery. It means that she delivered a single, healthy infant without any complications, when it requires no or minimal assistance.
