D76 vs I89.8
D76 (Other specified diseases with participation of lymphoreticular and reticulohistiocytic tissue) compared with I89.8 (Other specified noninfective disorders of lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes), 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. D76 carries an Excludes1 note covering I89.8: “lipomelanotic reticulosis (I89.8)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
