Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S72
The conditions below can never be reported together with S72.432 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- traumatic amputation of hip and thigh (S78.-)
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S72.432 to fully describe the condition. S72.432 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
The conditions below are not part of S72.432, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S72.432 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S70-S79
The conditions below are not part of S72.432, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S72.432 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S72
The conditions below are not part of S72.432, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S72.432 and the excluded code may both be reported.
