Excludes2 — not included here
The conditions below are not part of M93, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M93 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- osteochondrosis of spine (M42.-)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M91-M94
The conditions below can never be reported together with M93 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- postprocedural chondropathies (M96.-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 13
The conditions below are not part of M93, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M93 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- arthropathic psoriasis (L40.5-)
- certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- compartment syndrome (traumatic) (T79.A-)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
- congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
- endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)
- injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88)
- neoplasms (C00-D49)
- symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94)
