Inclusion terms

Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to R93.2.

  • Nonvisualization of gallbladder

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from R90-R94

The conditions below can never be reported together with R93.2 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • abnormal findings on antenatal screening of mother (O28.-)
  • diagnostic abnormal findings classified elsewhere - see Alphabetical Index

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 18

The conditions below are not part of R93.2, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R93.2 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)
