D82.1 vs E20

D82.1 (Di George's syndrome) compared with E20 (Hypoparathyroidism), 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. E20 carries an Excludes1 note covering D82.1: “Di George's syndrome (D82.1)”

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