Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from R09

The conditions below can never be reported together with R09.8 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • acute respiratory distress syndrome (J80)
  • respiratory arrest of newborn (P28.81)
  • respiratory distress syndrome of newborn (P22.0)
  • respiratory failure (J96.-)
  • respiratory failure of newborn (P28.5)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 18

The conditions below are not part of R09.8, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R09.8 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • abnormal findings on antenatal screening of mother (O28.-)
  • certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
  • signs and symptoms classified in the body system chapters
  • signs and symptoms of breast (N63, N64.5)
