Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from P83
The conditions below can never be reported together with P83.8 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 16
The conditions below are not part of P83.8, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P83.8 and the excluded code may both be reported.
