The conditions below can never be reported together with Z01.811 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

The conditions below are not part of Z01.811, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, Z01.811 and the excluded code may both be reported.
