Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from V93

The conditions below can never be reported together with V93.31 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • civilian water transport accident involving military watercraft (V94.81-)
  • other injury due to accident to watercraft (V91.-)
  • military watercraft accident in military or war operations (Y36, Y37.-)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from V93.3

The conditions below can never be reported together with V93.31 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • fall due to collision of watercraft (V91.2-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from V93

The conditions below are not part of V93.31, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, V93.31 and the excluded code may both be reported.
