Excludes vs. Excludes1 and Excludes2

"Excludes" as used in ICD-9-CM indicates that the code should not be used, because another code may be more appropriate. "Excludes" notes usually include suggestions of more appropriate codes or code ranges.

ICD-10-CM introduces two types of excludes: "Excludes1" and "Excludes2".

Codes/conditions listed in the "Excludes1" notes should not be used because the two conditions do not occur together.

Codes/conditions listed in the "Excludes2" notes indicate that the conditions being excluded are not considered part of the subject condition, but that another code should also be assigned.

Codes may have both, either or neither Excludes1 and Excludes2 notes.
