The conditions below can never be reported together with D37 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

How long has D37 existed?
D37 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
