Delayed separation of cord

Message text written by "Dianna Tolen"
>Is there a code for "delayed cord separation" or umbilical granuloma?<

Codes for umbilical granuloma are these:
umbilical granuloma 686.1 (of newborn 771.4)

I have looked for a code before and again tonight about late/delayed
umbilical separation; I've yet to locate one.
