Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from I80
The conditions below can never be reported together with I80.231 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Code first — inherited from I80
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before I80.231. I80.231 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 9
The conditions below are not part of I80.231, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, I80.231 and the excluded code may both be reported.
