D84.0 vs D84.81
D84.0 (Lymphocyte function antigen-1 [LFA-1] defect) compared with D84.81 (Immunodeficiency due to conditions 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. D84.81 carries an Excludes1 note covering D84.0: “certain disorders involving the immune mechanism (D80-D83, D84.0, D84.1, D84.9)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
