Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from Q74
The conditions below can never be reported together with Q74.2 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

The conditions below are not part of Q74.2, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, Q74.2 and the excluded code may both be reported.
