D58 vs P57

D58 (Other hereditary hemolytic anemias) compared with P57 (Kernicterus), 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. P57 carries an Excludes1 note covering D58: “hereditary hemolytic anemias (D55-D58)”

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