D55 vs E83

D55 (Anemia due to enzyme disorders) compared with E83 (Disorders of mineral metabolism), 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. E83 carries an Excludes1 note covering D55: “hemolytic anemias attributable to enzyme disorders (D55.-)”

Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
