Is Q82 billable?

Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with Q82 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 17
The conditions below are not part of Q82, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, Q82 and the excluded code may both be reported.
