Supplementary notes

The source notes that hospitalizations with at least one birth defect–associated discharge diagnosis were identified "by scanning up to 40 available fields for ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes Q00–Q99: congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities. Patent ductus arteriosus (Q25.0) and atrial septal defect (Q21.1) were not considered birth defects when occurring in neonates aged <28 days or with an associated indicator of preterm birth (ICD-10-CM codes P07.2 or P07.3). An additional 23 conditions of lesser clinical importance classified within the Q00–Q99 code range were not considered birth defects."

Concerning birth defect categories the source notes: " Birth defects categories correspond to blocks of ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes: cardiovascular (Q20–Q28), central nervous system (Q00–Q07), chromosomal (Q90–Q99), cleft lip/palate (Q35–Q37), ear (Q16–Q17), eye (Q10–Q15), gastrointestinal (Q38–Q45), genitourinary (Q50–Q64), integumentary (Q80–Q85), musculoskeletal (Q65– Q79), and other syndrome (Q87). “Other defect” includes birth defects of the face and neck (Q18), respiratory system (Q30–Q34), and other congenital malformations (Q86 and Q89)."

In 2019, it was estimated that the mean cost of hospitalizations with a coarctation of the aorta discharge diagnosis among those aged less than 65 years was around 80,521 U.S. dollars. Coarctation of the aorta is a birth defect in which the aorta is narrowed or constricted, affecting blood flow. This statistic shows the mean cost of U.S. hospitalizations with a cardiovascular birth defect–associated discharge diagnosis among those aged less than 65 years in 2019.
