Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with K95.8 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- complications of gastric band surgery (K95.0-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 11
The conditions below are not part of K95.8, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, K95.8 and the excluded code may both be reported.

- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
