Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M91-M94

  • postprocedural chondropathies (M96.-)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M91

The conditions below can never be reported together with M91.0 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • slipped upper femoral epiphysis (nontraumatic) (M93.0-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 13

The conditions below are not part of M91.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M91.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.
