Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from P03.81

The conditions below can never be reported together with P03.810 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • neonatal cardiac dysrhythmia (P29.1-)

Code first — inherited from P03

The underlying condition below must be sequenced before P03.810. P03.810 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
