Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from G80
The conditions below can never be reported together with G80.8 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- hereditary spastic paraplegia (G11.4)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 6
The conditions below are not part of G80.8, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, G80.8 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
- congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
