B67.3 vs E35
B67.3 (Echinococcus granulosus infection, other and multiple sites) compared with E35 (Disorders of endocrine glands in diseases classified elsewhere), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.
Can these codes be reported together?
No — do not report together. E35 carries an Excludes1 note covering B67.3: “Echinococcus granulosus infection of thyroid gland (B67.3)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
