Excludes2 — not included here
The conditions below are not part of R93.4, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R93.4 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- hypertrophy of kidney (N28.81)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from R90-R94
The conditions below can never be reported together with R93.4 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 R93.4, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, R93.4 and the excluded code may both be reported.
